2006 TASSINAIA Castello del Terriccio

2006 TASSINAIA Castello del Terriccio

Grapes: Merlot Sangiovese Cabernet Sauvignon  Origin: Italy, Tuscany
Lea & Sandeman review
A truly spectacular vintage of Tassinaia and one which may even eclipse the magnificent 2001 and 2004 vintages. This is drinking beautifully now, but can happily be kept and enjoyed over the next decade - if you can bear to resist!

Sangiovese, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon. Lovely appetising stuff, great balance and zest. Compelling. 2010-2016 17 Jancis Robinson MW OBE - www.JancisRobinson.com
Good vintage here. Dark crimson. Scented and more obviously Cabernet than either 2004 or 2005 on the nose. Very succulent and juicy with very fine spine. Still quite chewy tannins but lovely velvety fruit. 14% Drink 2011-2016 17.5 Jancis Robinson MW OBE - www.JancisRobinson.com
The 2006 Tassinaia flows from the glass with beautifully delineated layers of dark fruit, mocha, espresso, licorice, leather and spices. This is an unusually ripe, expansive Tassinaia with enough richness and sheer pedigree to challenge some of the estate’s more expensive bottlings. Sweet grilled herbs and spices add a final flourish on the powerful close, with notes of brightness from the Sangiovese that act as a foil to some of the darker nuances in the wine. In 2006 Tassinaia is nothing short of magnificent. Tassinaia is Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2018. 93/100 Antonio Galloni, The Wine Advocate
