A rich and darkly inviting blend of plum sauce, clove, cocoa and camphor makes the 2016 Taurasi Riserva Radici impossible to ignore. This is pure class, pliant and enveloping on the palate, with silken waves of ripe red and black fruit guided by brisk acidity. Citrus and inner herbal tones add tremendous depth. The 2016’s regal tannins come forward through the close, framing the experience with youthful poise without slowing its momentum, leaving chalky mineral tones and nuances of nectarine to linger. The balance here is something to behold. Bury this beauty deep in the cellar. (Eric Guido, Vinous, June 2023)

Cedar, medium tannins, red fruit, a smidge of camphor/ rosemary. Very drinkable, not life changing.

Expected more biting tannins. So much for expectation. Good anise, bitter chocolate, leather and some smoke. Tannins subdued. 1h decant.
