The 2014 Bolgheri Rosso from Donne Fittipaldi is a blend of predominately Cabernet Sauvignon along with Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. It displays a gorgeous dark, opaque color followed by inviting aromas of black cherries, blackberries, tobacco, spices, violets and wild herbs, which all slowly begin to take shape. This full-bodied red is well polished and beautifully balanced with a wonderful combination of ripe dark fruits and acidity, keeping it fresh and inviting. This continues to impress with excellent depth and focus through the long, chewy finish, as flavors of dark fruits are framed by smoky tobacco notes. Delicious now, yet also possesses the potential to take on some short-term cellaring . (Best 2018-2025) - August, 2017 (JD)
