Captivating is the word, as the 2010 Taurasi explodes from the glass with an earthy blend of black raspberry and savory spices complicated by nuances of sweet tobacco and ash. This is deeply textural, with waves of dark ripe fruit offset by stimulating acidity, sour citrus and a salty flourish toward the close. This finishes smoky, structured and long, with lingering kalamata olive and savory herbs notes, all framed by hulking tannins. The future is bright, and its balance is perfect, yet today, the 2010 is almost painful to taste. My best advice is to bury it in the cellar. (Eric Guido, Vinous, June 2023)
