Amazing plushness and richness characterizes this impressive offering from Aia Vecchia. It’s hard to match the beauty of this wine, which expresses itself as dark chocolate, cherry liqueur, black licorice, cigar box and dark spice. Soft, plush, super-rich tannins characterize the mouthfeel.——M.L.(2/1/2012)—— 95

The 2007 Sor Ugo is 60% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc aged in French oak. This dark beauty emerges with layers of black fruit, grilled herbs, spices and minerals, showing wonderful richness, vibrancy and precision. In short, it’s all there in the glass. The French oak is nicely balanced, even if another year or two in bottle will be helpful in allowing it to integrate further. This is a beautiful effort from Aia Vecchia. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2019. Aia Vecchia is one of the more under the radar producers in Bolgheri, but the wines rarely fail to deliver the goods, especially given prices that remain reasonable.Importer: Dalla Terra, Napa, CA; tel.

Sorugo (a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc) is nothing short of gorgeous with elegant aromas of polished mineral, cherry, chocolate, leather and brooding black fruit. It’s soft and textured with a refreshing note of acidity backed by excellent density. ——M.L.(12/15/2010)—— 95

The 2006 Sor Ugo is a rich, full bodied wine bursting with vibrant dark red fruit, flowers, smoke, tar and licorice. The juiciness in the fruit carries through with substantial energy to the refined, poised finish. Like many wines from Bolgheri in 2006, Sor Ugo possesses an incredibly attractive combination of ripeness and verve. Sor Ugo is 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot aged in Allier oak barrels. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2021. Importer: Dalla Terra, Napa, CA; tel. (707) 259-5405
