The 2012 ‘Sapaio’ is a sensational effort, delivering aromas of blackberries and currants woven together with spices, violets, tar and graphite minerals all bursting from the glass. This full-bodied red is layered and well defined with excellent depth and balance from start to finish. Today, this is still displaying plenty of youth, it will certainly require some additional bottle age before it hits its stride, but that being said, there looks to be wonderful future ahead.
