The 2006 Castello del Terriccio is a beautifully centered, poised wine layered with exceptional purity in its aromas and flavors. Ripe dark fruit, menthol, espresso, spices and licorice emerge from this focused, powerful Castello. Ideally, the wine is best cellared for a number of years. The Castello is one of Tuscany’s slowest wines to mature, at least in its early years. In 2006 the blend is 50% Syrah, 25% Petit Verdot and 25% other grapes. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2026.
No American importer.
