Lupicaia 2010 600cl

The 2010 Lupicaia is another fruit-forward vintage, showing great intensity and depth. What makes this wine unique is its streamlined and focused nature. Overall, it is a ripe, generous and very intense wine with rich flavors and concentration. The integrated tannins are dusty and fine. It would pair well with rich and gamey meats like liver, innards or venison.

Aromas of asphalt, meat and dark fruits follow through to a full body with firm, chewy tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Needs a year or two still to soften but already shows lots of character and polish. Mostly cabernet sauvignon with some merlot and petit verdot. Try in 2017.
