Estimate
Rose petal, perfumed berry, new leather, pressed powder and underbrush are just some of the enticing scents you'll find on this stunning wine. The structured palate is loaded with finesse, offering crushed cherry, black raspberry and licorice accompanied by polished tannins.
Silky tannins & pretty bright fruit of strawberries, sliced plums & hints of flowers. Full body, fine tannins & a wonderful clarity. Lovely length of fruit... last vintage of Santo Stefano for Giacosa after many decades of success.
Graphite, floral, cherry, licorice and tobacco aromas and flavors...stays bright and focused, with a chewy, savory finish.
Highly complex, scented nose combines red plum, cherry, strawberry, clove, medicinal herbs & a hint of orange zest. Intensely flavored, juicy & tightly wound with lovely cut & definition to the red fruit and spice flavors... terrific lift.
Appealing, open-knit sweet cherry and raspberry. A little jammy and super perfumed on the nose but beautifully balanced by freshness and powdery tannins. Very intense and sweet finish.
