The 2005 Lupicaia is a bit shorter in the mouth compared to later vintages, yet it's robust and layered with thick density and luscious fruit flavors. That is, it appears older in the mouth than it does on the nose. The wine remains well maintained and ripe, with a more granular texture. This was a hot vintage in most of Tuscany, but it's considered a cool one on this part of the Tuscan Coast.

Aromas of fresh herbs, currant and blackberry follow through to a full body, with chewy tannins and a long, chewy finish. A classic Bordeaux blend. Shows potential. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Best after 2011. 2,500 cases made. -JS

Meaty and rich and very dense. Exciting and nervy yet concentrated and polished - still quite youthful. Rich and dense. Vibrant. Youthful. Pretty firm tannins.

Lupicaia is a beautiful blend of Cabernet with smaller percentages of Merlot and Petit Verdot. The wine is elegant, complex and layered with intense aromas of blackberry, cherry, spice, leather, smoke and Spanish cedar. It’s beautiful from start to finish. ——M.L.(12/15/2010)—— 93
