Note di degustazione
Franchetti hit the bully's yet with his 2006 Franchetti, which is made from Petit Verdot grown on the terraced vineyards of the Guardiola vineyard. The super-ripe personality of the house style is present but in this vintage that quality is kept within the confines of a well-articulated, poised expression that offers plenty of freshness and detail. This is a striking red loaded with sweet spices, cassis, plums and new leather, all of which are woven together with profound elegance. The finish is superb and literally lasts into the next day. The 2006 Franchetti is one of the greatest wines ever made in Sicily. This is a brilliant achievement. Bravo!

Franchetti hit the bull’s eye with his 2006 Franchetti, which is made from Petit Verdot and Cesanese d’Affile grown on the terraced vineyards of the Guardiola vineyard. The super-ripe personality of the house style is present but in this vintage that quality is kept within the confines of a well-articulated, poised expression that offers plenty of freshness and detail. This is a striking red loaded with sweet spices, cassis, plums and new leather, all of which are woven together with profound elegance. The finish is superb and nearly lasts into the next day. The 2006 Franchetti is one of the greatest wines ever made in Sicily. This is a brilliant achievement. Bravo! Anticipated maturity: 2010-2021. Andrea Franchetti wasn’t content to just make profound wines at his Tuscan estate, Tentua di Trinoro, so he set out to replicate that success at Passopisciaro, his property on Mount Etna. These new releases are nothing less than breathtaking. Importer: T. Edward Wines, Ltd., New York, NY; tel. (212) 233-1504
