Riesci is a super Tuscan blend of Cabernet, Petit Verdot and Merlot with lovely density and opulence backed by bright aromas of mature berry fruit, cherry cola, blackberry pie, leather and dark chocolate. It’s a black, inky wine with solid tannins that will cut through succulent steak.

Here’s a wine that would pair beautifully with rosemary-marinated lamb or succulent pork tenderloin. It offers balanced aromas of fresh berry fruit versus oak-driven spice and ends with plush tannins and a silky mouthfeel.

Brunello Fossacolle opens with a darkly concentrated color and aromas of tobacco, spice, chocolate and meaty, pulpy black fruit. The wine presents a bigger, inky style and shows good depth and density on the palate thanks to its extracted consistency, creaminess and overall intensity.

Bright and fresh with buoyant aromas of plum, blackberry and mature cherry, Fossacolle’s 2005 Brunello (by vintner Sergio Marchetti) is a dark and concentrated wine with impressive aromatic depth. The mouthfeel is lean and compact with firm, polished tannins.

Here’s a very balanced Rosso with contrasting aromas of cherry and red fruit that stand against spice, chocolate and tobacco. It’s a bright, spicy wine with power, persistency and a much-needed touch of zesty acidity.

Tight menthol, currant berry, cedar wood and dusty mineral notes eventually waft off a wine that seems reluctant to open at first. The structure is solid without being hard, with espresso, leather and a powerful, dry finish. Imported by Vias Imports.

Fossacolle delivers both delicate complexity to the nose and long-lasting power to the palate. Aromas include blackberry, peppercorn, licorice and cedar wood. The mouth is awarded an extremely rich texture with velvety layers and cushiony soft tannins.
