There can be few doubts that the 2001 D?Alceo is one of the greatest wines in the distinguished history of the estate, something which becomes immediately evident from the deep ruby color as well as the sweet, focused, and weighty nose with its important notes of ripe berry fruit, sage, rosemary, and classy oak. Rich, dense, deep, and layered, the sensual and potent palate is sheer joy, the maximum in fused power and elegance.

Big and brooding red, with lots of ripe red currants and hints of toasted oak. Full-bodied, with thick and velvety tannins, almost sweet. Long and jammy. Juicy red. Best after 2005. 1,350 cases made. ?JS

Producer
Castello dei Rampolla
Castello dei Rampolla is on the cutting-edge of Tuscany’s top estates. Celebrating over fifty years of continuous growth, the estate builds on the natural rhythms of the environment to produce two highly sought-after and rated wines. Castello dei Rampolla is ideally located in the heart of the Chianti region, neighboring famed producers Fontodi and La Massa, all three estates reside within Panzano’s Conca d’Oro or the Golden Basin. Although the property has been under the ownership of the di Napoli family since 1739, they did not plant vineyards until the late 1960s. Alceo di Napoli inherited the farm debuting his first Bordeaux-style Cabernet Sauvignon, called Sanmarco in 1980. By the 1990s, his children, Luca and Maurizia took over the management of the property, and introduced biodynamic agriculture practices. Today, this centuries-old estate produces highly acclaimed wines, some of the greatest Tuscans on the market - garnering far-reaching esteem from critics and connoisseurs alike.
