2008 CABURNIO Tenuta Monteti
2008 CABURNIO Tenuta Monteti
| Grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon Alicante Bouschet Merlot | Origin: Italy, Tuscany |
Lea & Sandeman review
Blend of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Alicante-Bouschet and 20% Merlot, which is matured twelve months in a combination of stainless steel and oak barrels, only a small percentage of which are new. This fullish bodied, southern Tuscan wine remains one of our best selling and best value wines, for all its spicy, sweet fruit, and even its slight funky character. The 2008 is more focussed and precise than the very ripe 2007.| Purchasing options | |||||||

2008 CABERNET SAUVIGNON Grande Reserve Los Vascos
Chile
"Cabernet dominated blend (together with Carmenere, Syrah and Malbec) aged twelve months in French oak barrels of which half are new. This is an opulent and very seductive wine, easy to drink now and likely to improve with another year or two in bottles."

2006 TASSINAIA Castello del Terriccio
Tuscany Italy
"A truly spectacular vintage of Tassinaia and one which may even eclipse the magnificent 2001 and 2004 vintages. Keep this for a year or two and drink it over the following decade. Or do what everybody else is doing and drink it now!"
