Matarocchio Magnum

Dieser reinsortige Cabernet Franc gehört inzwischen zu den raren Weinen der Tenuta Guado al Tasso. Der Matarocchio wird größter Sorgfalt vinifiziert, jede Traube nach Qualität beurteilt und zugeordnet. Auch am Ende der Vinifizierung werden nur die besten Fässer ausgewählt, um ihren Beitrag zu diesem Wein zu leisten. Eine Ikone, über die Monica Larner von Robert Parker schreibt: The 2015 Matarocchio (all Cabernet Franc) is a gorgeous wine, but it does not reach the stunning heights achieved in the knock-out 2013 vintage. This wine was not produced in 2014, and only 5,000 bottles were made in this vintage. Compared to the 2013 edition, this wine appears to have a slightly smaller aromatic range. This gives it a very focused and direct approach. In other words, this vintage is more vertical than it is horizontal in its delivery. The tannins are a more evident here and more nervous or crunchy. The wine is composed of deep, dark and penetrating fruit, with bitter chocolate and savory tobacco. It also shows a salty mineral note that makes your mouth salivate. This vintage of Matarocchio needs a few more years of bottle aging to gain in volume.
