Tasting Notes

Vinous 92+

Good medium red. High-pitched aromas of raspberry, crushed stone and mint lifted by hints of orange and peach. Very dry, juicy and penetrating; can’t quite match the Curra for weight but this is wonderfully perfumed in the mouth. A saline element contributes thrust. Here the tannins are currently a bit more exposed, calling for a good seven or eight years of cellaring. "Two thousand eight will be a great classic vintage, like 2001 and 1996," said Sottimano.
