2007 Castello del Terriccio ‘Tassinaia’ Toscana IGT
£35.00
“The 2007 Tassinaia is a huge, explosive wine bursting with dark red fruit, spices, leather and licorice. The 2007 is a beautifully expressive, opulent Tassinaia endowed with character and personality. Layers of fruit emerge effortlessly from this fabulous, vivid wine. Menthol, pine and a host of sweet, balsamic nuances wrap around the textured finish. This is a fabulous Tassinaia. The blend is predominantly Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese.”
94 Points, Antonio Galloni, The Wine Advocate
“I think my two favourite wines from this Bunch selection have been supertuscans! Really beautiful balance and transparency. So appetising, Long. I’d love to see it alongside Bordeaux 2007.”
Tassinaia is a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese. It is named after the farmhouse on one of the hills called “Le Tassinaie”, which means “the place of the stones”.
After 16 months aging in tonneaux of French oak, the varieties are blended and allowed to age in bottle for at least 12 months before sale. The two green lines on the label represent the green fields in springtime. Tassinaia was first produced in 1992.
