A smoky, masculine Cab-Merlot blend with deep highlights of cigar box, old spice, black cherry and leather. The wine is compact and firm in terms of its aromatic offering and is focused on sophisticated, tobacco-like notes. In the mouth it delivers bursting red fruit and tight, chewy tannins and makes a great, long-lasting impression on the finish. Drink after 2010.

Jassarte is a noteworthy, and somewhat experimental, blend of more than 20 Mediterranean and Caucasian grape varieties with a dark ruby color and pretty aromas of blackberry, spice, toasted almond and plum. There are hints of chopped herb and mint in there as well.

This Bolgheri Superiore shows luscious and clean notes of mature black fruit, plum, prune and loads of vibrant black cherry. Wood elements of spice, tobacco and leather are well integrated and the wine is impressively smooth and generous on the finish.

Bacco in Toscana is an easy and slightly awkward blend of Sangiovese and 20% Syrah with bright berry notes and background aromas of moist earth and tobacco.

Antillo consists of 70% Sangiovese (the rest is Cabernet Sauvignon) and opens with meaty aromas of smoked bacon, dark fruit, leather, tobacco and moist earth. The mouthfeel is crisp, thin and easy.

A blend of 20 varieties from the Mediterranean and the Caucasus, the wine’s aromas are muddled: There’s a bit of blackberry, plum, horsehide, cow pasture, tar and old leather in here. But this primordial brew offers a fascinating glimpse at the roots of wine.

This is modern and plush, ripe and chewy with all kinds of playful renderings of chocolate fudge, coffee and sweet spice in between. Deep fruit renderings peel off layer after layer giving way to solid structure and a polished, dusty finish. Drink after 2012.
