The 2009 Caiarossa (Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Syrah and Alicante) delivers a surprisingly focused bouquet despite the motley assembly of grapes used in the blend. The wine shows a darkly concentrated appearance with sweet tones of ripe cherry and baking spice. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2020.
Caiarossa is a dynamic estate located in the Val di Cecina, in coastal Tuscany. It was among the first properties in the area to embrace biodynamic winemaking.
