All of these 2001 wines are excellent, starting with the 2001 Tassinaia, a Bordeaux blend and theoretically the “second” wine of the house. The black currant and blackberry fruit, the sweetness of the notes of Mediterranean herbs and minerals, and the sizeable, well sustained palate, however, make this anything but a second choice for consumers. Drink: 2006-2016. Importer: Kobrand Corp., New York, NY; tel. (212) 490-9300

Always a fine choice among super Tuscans, Tassinaia blends one-third each of Sangiovese, Merlot and Cabernet to a rousing result. The big nose takes a while to unwind, revealing deep black fruit and leather. Big and firm in the mouth, with unwavering structure and full boysenberry and other dark-fruit flavors. Drinkable now but will hold nicely for another few years. ——M.S.(9/1/2006)—— 92
