Castello del Terriccio Castello del Terriccio Tassinaia 2022 750ml

A bright and layered wine with aromas of ripe cassis, eucalyptus, intense cedar and balsamic depth. Elegant palate with a medium body, crisp acidity, fine ripe tannins, meaty flavors and good length. Drink or hold.

Currants and flowers with just a whiff of lavender on the nose. Medium body, fine tannins and a bright finish. Vivid and very attractive. Cabernet sauvignon and merlot. Makes you want to drink it. Better in a couple of years. (James Suckling)

This is a blend of equal parts Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon that was first produced in 1992. The Castello del Terriccio 2019 Tassinaia hits a very attractive price point and offers lots of dark fruit concentration and richness along the way. Grilled herb, candied watermelon, tar and spice appear on the nose. The wine travels over the palate with some sharpness, good freshness and overall accessibility.
