The darker, more textured side of Cesanese comes through in the 2007 San Magno. The San Magno is all about richness and overt fruit, but there is less going on in the way of varietal character. As good as the 2007 is, I miss some of the nuance and character of the simpler Colle Ticchio bottling. Leather, tobacco, licorice forward aromas and flavors suggest the 2007 should be enjoyed sooner rather than later. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2017. Importer: Vias Imports, New York, NY; tel.
