Vigna d'Alceo

2007 D’Alceo Toscana IGT, Castello dei Rampolla D’Alceo spiegelt die Eigenschaften des Weinbergs, aus dem er stammt, vollständig wider. Intensiv, warm, raffiniert und elegant. Die reifen roten Früchte harmonieren perfekt mit den Noten von zarter Zigarre und Tabak. Eine unglaubliche Konzentration ohne Schwere. Ausnahmsweise sprechen wir nicht von einem Wein, sondern von der Persönlichkeit eines von Alceo gepflanzten Weinbergs, der sich nicht hätte vorstellen können, die hervorragende Kombination aus Lage, Boden und Rebsorten (Cabernet Sauvignon und Petit Verdot) gefunden zu haben. Die durchschnittliche Produktion beträgt 6000 - 12000 Flaschen. James Suckling: This has so much blackberry, porcini mushroom, and chestnut character. Full-bodied, with firm tannins and a long finish. Love the way this changes from mushrooms and earth to blackberries. So impressive now, but will be better in three or four years. Vinous: Dark raspberries, cloves, menthol and crushed rocks wrap around the palate in the 2007 d'Alceo. Rich, voluptuous and sexy, the 2007 is very much a product of a vintage that yielded a crop of resonant, generous wines. The ripe, silky tannins will make the 2007 accessible relatively early, but it also has more than enough depth to age well for years. Today, the flavors are naturally still quite primary and there is still quite a bit of baby fat that has to melt off before the 2007 enters its prime drinking window. Still, there is a lot to like, including the wine's huge, palate-staining finish. Grace meets power in the 2007. In a word: dazzling! Wine Spectator: Suave and silky, with rich black currant, blackberry and spice flavors backed by lively acidity and dusty tannins. It all hangs together beautifully, with a Bordeaux-like cast to the flavors and profile. There's intensity, without this being showy or heavy. Terrific length. Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot.
