Guado al Tasso Bolgheri Superiore 2007
Tuscany, ItalySpicy, meaty, peppery, black olive, tobacco, cherry, cassis, vanilla nose with orange, peel and that characteristic, garrigue, barnyard, smoky aromas. Fine complexity here with rich, ripe, full and supple tannins and juicy acidity. Cassis, black cherry, cranberry, orange, smoky, meaty, peppery, vanilla, earthy, liquorice, tobacco, and olive flavours. A good balance of fruit, herbs and spice with the cabernet shining through. Better in three years but best in ten. One to watch.Tasted: 15 November 2010Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $94.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
