The 2007 Sangiovese Raddese is a big, fat red loaded with dark fruit. This is a very rich, powerful wine that stands apart from nearly every other Sangiovese based wine being made in the high-altitude vineyards of Radda. Still, it is impossible not to admire the raciness of the fruit and the wine’s sheer density. The finish is round, generous and beautifully articulated. This will be fascinating to follow in the coming years. The potential for improvement over time is significant. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2020. Importer: Superior Wines LLC, Cranford, NJ; tel.
