1997  Merlot

"A great year for a great wine with a fine structure, heavy and enveloping with tannins of exemplary cleanliness, closing with a long, pleasing finish. Casalferro is a wine with a modern approach evidencing the Ricasoli Barons' role as innovators in wine growing. The wine exalts the features of the Sangiovese in combination with Merlot and its long lineage." - Barone Ricasoli official

Ciacci Piccolmini is one of the most sought-after producers in all of Italy. This ancient estate has 35 hectares of superior holdings in the prized Castelnuovo dell’Abate zone, including the "Pianrosso" vineyard. The bouquet is of the Pianrosso is intense, complex, fruit-forward and spicy with hints of ripe red berry fruits enriched by various spicy notes. Warm, soft and harmonic on the palate. Great balance among pronounced tannins, acidity and savouriness. This elegant wine has good potential for further cellar ageing. - Piccolomini Official "Aromas of lilac, dark berry and sandalwood follow through to a full body, with fine tannins and an intense and savory finish. Very intense and very long. Succulent. Amazing balance and depth to this red. It's so beautiful to taste now but it will be much better in five to ten years. A triumph." - 98pts JS
