The 2009 Bolgheri Pean is a deep, powerful wine loaded with sweet dark cherries, plums, espresso and grilled herbs. The character and personality of Bolgheri comes through on the generous, expansive finish. This is a terrific entry-level wine that impresses for its intensity and balance. The Pean is 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Cabernet Franc. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2017.
