The 2008 Cesanese del Piglio Colle Ticchio shows off gorgeous inner perfume and clarity in its dark plums, cherries, flowers, spices and minerals. Silky tannins frame the long, refined finish. This is a gorgeous wine from Lazio, a region that produces just a small handful of notable wines. The Colle Ticchio is equal parts Cesanese d’Affile and Cesanese Comune, aged in stainless steel.
