The 2002 Vin San Laurentino is an unusual dessert wine for many reasons. The first is the heavy reliance on Sangiovese, which accounts for 50% of the blend, along with 25% Trebbiano and 25% Malvasia. The second is a very long elevage of 8 years in new 150 liter French oak barrels. The resulting wine flows from the glass with stunning density and richness, with layers of exotic coconut, spices, dried flowers, licorice and maple syrup. Despite its massive concentration and whopping 288 grams of residual sugar, the 2002 is remarkably well-balanced for a wine of this size. The 2002 Vin San Laurentino is best enjoyed on its own. I imagine its aging potential is virtually unlimited. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2022+. Proprietor Marco Bacci makes a wide range of wines across his properties in Tuscany, but those of Castello di Bossi lead the way when it comes to quality and consistency. These are rich, textured wines that in most cases can handle fairly high amounts of new French oak. A Leonardo Lo Cascio Selection, Winebow, Montvale, NJ; tel. (201) 445-0620
