Rocca delle Macìe 1997 Roccato Sangiovese (Toscana)

  • Editors' Choice
  1. $25
From the cherry, violet and tobacco nose through the full-flavored palate, this wine hits the right notes. The flavors follow the aromas, the finish is long and polished, with firm, ultrafine tannins. Inviting now, it will really shine after 2003. Editors’ Choice.  — W.E.  (8/1/2001)

As its brawny name suggests, Roccato (Sangiovese and Cabernet) is a thickly concentrated wine with powerful blasts of plum, dried herbs, mint candy, licorice and white talc powder. It’s ripe and ready to drink now.  — M.L.  (4/1/2008)

Rocca delle Macìe 2000 Roccato Cabernet Sauvignon-Sangiovese (Toscana)

  1. $46
Deeply colored, with intense crude oil, black plum and tobacco aromas. The palate is chunky as can be, with dark plum, blackberry and char. Where this one steers off course is on the mouthfeel, where extruding tannins create a raw, scratchy feel on the insides of one’s cheeks.  — M.S.  (9/1/2006)
