Description
The 2019 Sammarco embodies Castello dei Rampolla’s biodynamic ideals with the natural depth and concentration of the vintage. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Sangiovese, it is, as The Wine Advocate’s Monica Larner – who scored it 96 points – writes, “a firmly grounded wine, with a bigger baseline of aromas, spanning black fruit, baked plum, spice, tobacco and crushed limestone.” The tannins are beautifully managed, giving early drinkability despite the wine’s underlying power. Those who open it now will find richness and poise; those who wait will be rewarded with greater nuance and complexity as the structure unwinds.
