The 2010 Ciliegiolo Maremma Toscana shows good up-front juiciness in its red fruit, grilled herbs, tobacco and licorice. Some rough edges remain, but this rustic red should drink well at the dinner table. Another few months will do this recently-bottled red a world of good. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2014.
