"The 2006 Taurasi Riserva T opens to a black-garnet color and thick concentration. The bouquet is somewhat evolved with dried blackberries, tar, licorice, balsam herb, rum cake and crushed granite. This is a big wine, with broad shoulders and deep footprints. The mouthfeel is weighty and thick with smokey flavors of ash and campfire that linger long on the palate. The finish is crisper than you might expect and there's a touch of sour cherry there as well. The balanced 2006 vintage still has a lot of life inside."

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.
