The 2019 Palazzi is a classic Trinoro wine, with maybe a bit less bombastic intensity than some of the earlier wines, but all of the seamless elegance that has long made these reds so compelling. All the elements are wonderfully put together in the 2019, a wine thet impresses with its mix of elegance, flamboyant intensity and sheer allure.I loved it.

Because of frost and a cold spring, some of the vineyard parcels at this estate saw late harvest dates. But the Merlot was the first to come off the vines by the 14th of September. The Tenuta di Trinoro 2019 Palazzi is a pure expression of Merlot with incoming fruit from the Palazzi vineyard that is characterized by dense clay soils. The wine's intensity is what stands out most, and that power is fueled by lovely nuances of black fruit, spice, sweet tobacco and baker's chocolate. The alcohol content weighs in at 15.5%. Palazzi excels in terms of mouthfeel. The smooth richness and deep softness achieved here is only possible with this grape. Furthermore, it seems only possible in this spectacular, sun-drenched corner of undiscovered Tuscany known as Sarteano.<br/>"Tenuta di Trinoro is a vast mosaic of soil types," says proprietor Andrea Franchetti, who lives in a rustic farmhouse overlooking the vines. The high-density vines are over 20 years old and their root systems are fully developed. The estate counts 23 hectares of vines between 400 and 620 meters in altitude. Cabernet Franc and Merlot are the heart of the estate, and there are smaller plots of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot as well. High-density planting, fruit selection in the vineyard, low yields, full phenolic ripeness and concentration give these wines a unique and unmistakable personality, Franchetti explains: "The wines are extreme in their perfumes, color and taste. They can be enjoyed in the near term but are also built for long aging."<br/>

Tenuta di Trinoro
La Tenuta di Trinoro est lovée dans un écrin reculé, là où la Toscane rencontre l’Ombrie et le Latium. Andrea Franchetti a décidé d’implanter un vignoble ici, sur ce territoire vierge de Sarteano, en 1992. Franchetti demeure l’un des vignerons les plus extrêmes d’Italie, fervent défenseur du modèle viticole français. Il a planté des cépages bordelais à une densité très élevée à des altitudes allant jusqu’à 500-700 mètres ; il vendange le plus tard possible, parfois jusqu’en novembre. Ensuite, il vinifie séparément chaque parcelle, aussi petite soit-elle, pour pouvoir suivre l’évolution de chacune d’elle de façon méticuleuse et sélectionner le summum de la qualité pour sa cuvée Tenuta di Trinoro. Le terroir, de toute évidence, est singulier ici : en témoigne la somptuosité et l’originalité qu’il apporte aux vins. De faibles rendements permettent par ailleurs de sublimer leur trame de fruits noirs et d’essences d’herbes aromatiques. Tout en étant grands admirateurs de sa Tenuta di Trinoro, - à base de cabernet franc complété de cabernet-sauvignon et de petit verdot, dans des proportions moins élevées - nous trouvons son second vin, Le Cupole, d’un rapport qualité-prix totalement incroyable.
