The biggest of the bunch is the 2012 Colli di Conegliano Refrontolo Stèfen 1624. Made with air-dried Marzemino grapes, this is a powerful and thickly extracted wine. It offers 15.5% alcohol and you definitely feel that power. The wine opens to a deep black color and a level of consistency so thick that the wine is visibly slower in its movements as it coats the inside of your glass. The bouquet opens to dried fruit aromas with prune and blackberry. There is savory spice, moist chewing tobacco, bitter chocolate, tar and licorice. There is some soft residual sugar buried within all that thickness. The name Stèfen is an archaic name for the De Stefani family.
