點擊次數(shù)：3501

The 2005 Tane is 85% Nero d-Avola and 15% Syrah, with the Syrah seeing a ripasso over the skins of the Nero d-Avola. Super-ripe dark fruit, licorice, spices and French oak emerge from this plump, full-bodied offering. The Tane is the most intense of the wines from Valle dell-Acate. The 100% new French oak seems a bit much for this bottling. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2015. These new releases from Valle dell-Acate are impressive. Best of all, most of these wines can be had for less than $25 a bottle.Importer: Polaner Selections, Mt. Kisco, NY; tel. (914) 244-0404

Tane is a hearty and memorable 80-20 blend of Nero d’Avola and Syrah from a gorgeous estate in southern Sicily run by the lively vintner Gaetana Jacono. Aromas include ripe berry, cola, spice and crushed clove. The wine is rich and dense with chewy tannins and mouth-watering succulence: Pair it with lamb or barbecue spare ribs.——M.L.(2/1/2009)—— 90
