An excellent estate, Villa Cafaggio fashioned four impressive wines in 1990. The outstanding 1990 Cortaccio is made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. It exhibits a saturated deep ruby/purple color, an intense, forceful, complex nose of sweet, creamy new oak, and blackcurrants. Medium to full-bodied, with layers of rich, highly extracted fruit, yet supple and elegant, this lush, generously-endowed wine can be drunk now, yet possesses the balance to age well for 7-10 years. These four offerings are impressive!
