This is totally reminiscent of the early vintages of Il Bosco, for all its restrained Syrah fruit and drinkability. Less compact than the 2008, with more open, spicy fruit, and hints of sweetness. L&S (Aug 2011)

Tenimenti Luigi d'Alessandro
Massimo d'Alessandro is passionate about the Rhone and Syrah in particular. Having long since identified the 'terroir' and micro-climate of his Cortona vineyards as being almost identical to that of the Northern Rhone, he imported the best Viognier and Syrah clones, densely planted in the early 1990s, and set about making the best wines of the region. His Syrah is now rated world-class, particularly in vintages such as 2001 and 2004.
