2015 Lanciola 'Terricci' Rosso Toscana

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


James Suckling - "A characterful wine with light cedar highlighting overtones of dried berries, red plums, dried meat, tar and tobacco. Medium-to full-bodied and chewy, this shows lots of moss and earth notes on the palate, but a solid line of freshness and acidity. Drink now."


Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - "A blend of Sangiovese (80%) with Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot, the 2015 Terricci is a robust, medium-bodied Tuscan blend with a well-measured bouquet of black fruit, tilled earth and savory spice. The wine is brawny and rich, especially in terms of mouthfeel, but its texture is never too thick or heavy. The base of the wine is Sangiovese, and you taste that grape here most. The other blending elements only register as background notes. Terricci would make a nice pairing with a thick mushroom, artichoke and spinach dip and freshly baked bread. Some 8,000 bottles were produced."
