...Freshly cut flowers, sweet red berries, plums, mint and licorice all take shape in the glass Over the last few months, the 2009 d'Alceo has softened a bit, releasing expressive, floral aromatics, brighter shades of fruit and striking inner perfume, but it remains quite vibrant... The 2009 is a wonderfully deep, resonant d'Alceo... It certainly looks like Rampolla nailed the vintage. Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media

Iconic. Rich blackberry and plum preserves, cassis and lifted floral notes. What a treat.

A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. Petty aromas of fresh blackberries, dark cherries, leather, earth, floral and a touch of spice. This possesses a beautiful soft, velvety texture and great finesse. Will be approachable early.

Integrated, evolved and complex...everything you wish for in a great wine. Developed notes of dark fruit, woods and tobacco. A wine to be enjoyed over for hours with an interesting companion.
