"The 2013 La Ricolma is powerful and explosive in the glass, with huge fruit and equally vibrant tannins. Iron, smoke, dried herbs, blood orange, mint and spice meld together in a virile, imposing wine that still needs years in bottle to be at its very best. It is very clearly a great wine in the making. This fruit was picked on October 2 and 3, which is on the later side of things."

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
The heartland of Sangiovese, producing Chianti Classico, Brunello di Montalcino and the Cabernet-influenced 'Super Tuscans' of the coast. Its wines balance bright acidity, savory structure and cellar-worthiness.
Produces plush, supple, fruit-forward reds with plum and chocolate notes. Softer and earlier-maturing than Cabernet, it adds flesh and roundness to blends and stars in Right Bank Bordeaux.
