Expert Reviews

93 Points | International Wine Cellar , January/February 2002

($75; 100% sangiovese) Medium garnet. Tobacco, truffle and earthy scents predominate on the complex nose, along with notes of plum and vanilla that reverberate on the palate. Densely textured and sweet, framed by glossy tannins. A wine of lovely balance and persistence, with sweet pipe tobacco accentuating the silky finish.

About Italy

Italy, like France, offers a world of wine styles within a single country: dry Italian white wines ranging from lively and minerally to powerful and full-bodied; cheap and cheerful Italian red wines in both a cooler, northern style and a richer, warmer southern style; structured, powerful reds capable of long aging in bottle; sparkling wines; sweet wines and dessert wines.
