Tasting notes
Conti's 2019 Boca Il Rosso delle Donne offers up scents of sweet pipe tobacco, cedar, leather, dried cherry and incense. Deceptively medium in body, with gorgeous persistence and bright acids, the 2019 exudes old-school classicism in its lightly oxidative personality. Readers should expect a wine with tons of savory/earthy aromatic complexity and plenty of structure but less in the way of forward fruit. For readers who want to know what traditionally made Boca is all about, this is it!

The 2019 Boca Il Rosso delle Donne is a potent wine that will need a bit more time in bottle to shed some tannin. A core of sweet macerated cherry, spice, leather, licorice, incense and red flowers lie behind the acid and tannin, just waiting to be released. This translucent yet muscular, incisive Boca is a terrific example of the appellation. All it requires is patience.
