The 2007 Pignolo, on the other hand, is totally impressive. It is a huge wine that builds in the glass, with waves of sweet, perfumed fruit that emerge over time. This shows more than enough inner sweetness and depth to stand up to the tannins. Scents of grilled herbs, licorice, new leather and rosemary add depth and complexity to the dark fruit. This is a gorgeous wine from start to finish, all it needs is further time in bottle. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2022.
