2018 Percarlo San Giusto a Rentennano

100% Sangiovese. Intensives Rubinrot im Glas. Sein Bouquet versprüht den Duft mediterraner Kräuter, Sauerkirsche und Lakritze. Elegant, intensiv im Geschmack. Feine Struktur, tief und ausdauernd.

Falstaff 98 Punkte: Leuchtendes Rubin-Granat. Fein gezeichnete Nase, eröffnet erst mit wiederholtem Nachriechen seine ganze Tiefe, etwas eingelegte Kirschen, Brombeere und reife Zwetschgen, dazu feine Tabaknoten. Am Gaumen viel dichtmaschiges Tannin, kompakt und zupackend, dunkle Frucht, im Finale nach dunkler Schokolade, braucht noch viel Reife, sehr gutes Potential.

Parker-Larner 95 Punkte: The organic 2018 Percarlo is all Sangiovese from a special 30-hectare site that sees a mix of typical Tuscan soils at a breezy 270 meters in elevation. Before oak aging, the wine is fermented in a combination of stainless steel and cement. Percarlo reveals a luxuriously rich and dense quality. The wine's profound intensity is built by deep fruit and elegant mineral etchings. The bouquet is outstanding. However, the only distraction is the dry or powdery tannin that I enjoyed to a lesser extent (with the powerful 15% alcohol content). Exactly 18,352 bottles were made, with various large formats included in that number.

WineSpectator 94 Punkte: A dense, tightly wound red, with tar, olive and tobacco aromas giving way to dusty cherry and plum flavors. Vibrant and firms up on the mineral-laden finish. A bit angular now, yet with fine potential. Best from 2024 through 2040. 850 cases made, 200 cases imported.
