Sammarco--Vintage 1996
Tuscany, Castello dei Rampolla
Parcel: lots 776-777
"The Sammarco (an 85 Cabernet Sauvignon/15 Sangiovese blend aged 18-24 months in wood) offers a Graves-like nose of scorched earth, charcoal, tobacco, and red and black currants. In the mouth, roasted nut flavors add complexity. The wine possesses medium body, a stylish, elegant personality, not much power or force, but fine purity and balance. The tannin results in a slight astringency in the back of the mouth. Drink it over the next 7-8 years." Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #130 (Aug 2000)
