Ricasoli Casalferro 2016

94 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The Barone Ricasoli 2016 Casalferro puts a purely Tuscan fingerprint on the Merlot grape. The wine is beautifully tonic and tightly wound initially from a classic vintage that was especially favourable for an early-ripening variety such as this. However, it cedes and expands quite elegantly onto the palate. The bouquet opens gracefully to dark cherry, blackberry, spice, leather and tar. These elements are balanced and weighed against each other with just the right intensity.

93 Points - James Suckling

Full and juicy with lots of ripe fruit and spices. Firm and silky tannins. A little tight now but shows potential. 100% Merlot.
