Note di degustazione
The 2008 Harlequin, Zymé's flagship red, is a baby. A precise, layered wine, the 2008 impresses for its energy and focus. This is one of the more polished, refined vintages of Harlequin I can remember tasting. Sweet red cherries, mint, new leather and cinnamon all meld together in a silky, layered wine built on pure class. The 200% new oak is felt in the wine's balance, but the oak is nicely integrated just the same.

Altre recensioni e punteggi
The 2008 Harlequin is a difficult wine to pin down. The blend consists of 16 grapes, both white and red: Garganega, Trebbiano Toscano, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Syrah, Teroldego, Croatina, Oseleta, Sangiovese and Marzemino. The only thing missing is the kitchen sink. It ages in new barrique for 48 months and is packaged in a very heavy glass bottle. This is not a wine that will appeal to everyone. Its darkness and thick extraction are way over the top. But if you have a palate for the big (similar to Dal Forno), you will enjoy the super smooth texture and decadent fruit layers. There is a noticeable touch of sweetness on the close.
