Premi

Authentic, very bright pale shade of Etna reds with young pink edges. Sweet red fruit and glacé cherries on the nose, plus a distinctive anginess. An incisive, concentrated, tightly packed, muscular palate and a long nish with sour berries, Parma Violets and pepper.

Leuchtendes, mitteldichtes Rubingranat. Eröffnet mit ansprechenden harzigen Noten, nach Zedernholz, dann nach Himbeeren und frischen Pflaumen, etwas Thymian. Saftig und rund im Ansatz, öffnet sich dann mit viel präsenter Beerenfrucht, feinmaschiges Tannin, salzig und lang.

The 2014 Tancredi is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Nero d’Avola. The wine is creamy and dense with excellent concentration and a smooth style that leaves an
especially warm feeling in the mouth. Tancredi is one of those goto wines when you want something good, but you don’t want to think too hard. It offers happy, quality drinking. This is my favorite
vintage of Tancredi to date.

Clove, vanilla and dust character comes through on the nose, but there’s plenty of underbrush, pine needles and brambleberries to counter that. The palate shows a structured, tannin backbone that’s quite chewy, and the dark fruit flavors roll over spicy components to the medium-long finish. Drink in 2020.

A fresh and fruity red with raspberries, herbs and red licorice. Medium body, medium-chewy tannins and a bright finish. Drink now.

There’s a savoriness to this that springs immediately from the glass in the form of bark and underbrush. Then dark cherries, brambleberries and vanilla take over. Medium to full body, polished tannins and a focused finish.

Green apples, freshly squeezed lemon juice, a touch of peach pit and jasmine. Medium body, pretty acidity and a focused finish. Drink now.

This is always delicious with dried-apricot, almond and tangerine character. Hints of toffee. Full-bodied and very sweet. Long, flavorful finish. Just the right amount of bitterness makes it very, very interesting. Drink now.

This is at once rich and perfumed with morello cherries, eucalyptus, blackberry leaf, underbrush and cloves. Medium to full body, firm tannins and a medium-chewy, spicy finish. Drink now.

A fresh and fruity nero d’avola with elderberry pie, cranberry sauce and raspberry cheesecake. Light to medium body, bright acidity and a tangy finish. Drink now.
