Marchesi Antinori 2004 Guado al Tasso Red (Bolgheri Superiore)

  1. $80
Luscious, modern and concentrated, this wine delivers chocolate, exotic spice, succulent cherry, currant berry and lively buoyancy. It also has some notes that recall rubber or latex, but those don’t distract. On the heels of that are thicker, more enticing notes of campfire, toasts and cedar that taste so good over the wine’s toned, well-built structure.  — M.L.  (4/1/2008)
