Note di degustazione
The 2004 d'Alceo is off the charts. Freshly cut flowers, mint and dark red berries are all finely knit in a fabric of superb elegance and pure pedigree. It is fascinating to watch the evolution of Vigna d'Alceo from a wine of power to a wine of finesse, and 2004 is the inflection point in that arc. The silkiest and most refined tannins imaginable support an impeccable, layered finish peppered with dark red/black fruit, smoke, tobacco, licorice and savory herbs. Simply put, the 2004 is stunning.

The 2004 d'Alceo (85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Petit Verdot) is even better. It is deceptively rounder and softer than the Sammarco in its expression of cassis, minerals, licorice and sweet, dark fruit. Despite the lushness of its fruit there is plenty of structure lurking underneath, and it will require significant patience before offering its finest drinking. It is one of the highlights of the vintage.
The Castello dei Rampolla 2004 d'Alceo (made with 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Petit Verdot) is beautiful, and its freshness comes through with dark fruit, earth and crushed stone. This is a profound expression of d'Alceo. I am happy to recommend it to anyone lucky enough to have a bottle. However, it does not reach the same soaring levels as the 2006.
