2008 D’Alceo Toscana IGT, Castello dei Rampolla
D’Alceo spiegelt die Eigenschaften des Weinbergs, aus dem er stammt, vollständig wider. Intensiv, warm, raffiniert und elegant. Die reifen roten Früchte harmonieren perfekt mit den Noten von zarter Zigarre und Tabak.
Eine unglaubliche Konzentration ohne Schwere. Ausnahmsweise sprechen wir nicht von einem Wein, sondern von der Persönlichkeit eines von Alceo gepflanzten Weinbergs, der sich nicht hätte vorstellen können, die hervorragende Kombination aus Lage, Boden und Rebsorten (Cabernet Sauvignon und Petit Verdot) gefunden zu haben.
Die durchschnittliche Produktion beträgt 6000 - 12000 Flaschen.
James Suckling:
Love this. Fabulous aromas of currants and blackberries. Hints of licorice, Indian spices and dried violets. Full-bodied, ultra-fine tannins and amazing fruit, yet so vibrant, racy and balanced. The structure of Margaux with the style of Rampolla. Best ever. Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. From organically grown grapes. Leave it for at least five or six years.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate:
The 2008 d’Alceo is a huge, inward, brooding wine. Plums, black cherries, camphor, incense and smoke emerge over time, but only with great reluctance. The 2008 is going to require considerable patience, but it is shaping up to be an absolute jewel. The d’Alceo is a wine of notable depth and purity, but it is very closed down at the moment. Dark red fruit, flowers, mint, spices, tar, cassis, graphite and camphor linger on the huge, structured finish. This is a towering effort from the Di Napoli family.
Vinous:
Exotic, racy notes abound in the 2008 d'Alceo. Dark red and black fruit, jasmine, smoke and sweet spices are some of the many notes that meld together as the 2008 opens up. Dark and intense to the core, the 2008 boasts tremendous richness and volume, all in a style that is quite sumptuous and is quite suggestive of a late harvest. The 2008 has begun to open up over the last year or so. Today it is super sexy and hugely appealing.
