Estimate
The nose is sensational...dried flowers, spices, tanned leather, pencil lead and ripe cherry all flow together, linked by mineral, earthy tones as gripping pogression on the palate introduces a succession of sensations. Monumental.
...an utterly thrilling wine that will be a joy to follow over the coming years. In many ways, the restraint, elegance and polish all suggest Cepparello is the Haut-Brion of Tuscany’s high-end, pure Sangioveses.
Aromatic nose of ripe red cherry, menthol and underbrush, with an intriguing note of peach. Sweet, supple and dense, with ripe flavors of dark plum, almond, underbrush and tomato paste. Finishes long and smooth, with a strong coffee nuance.
Silky and caressing, with pretty berry and floral aromas and flavors. Medium-bodied, with fine tannins. There's a beautiful density and finesse to this.
