Note di degustazione
The 2007 Paleo Rosso is rich, sexy and voluptuous, very much in the style of the year. A textured, resonant wine, the 2007 fleshes out beautifully, with layers of deeply spiced dark red stone fruits, roasted coffee beans, new leather and spices. Even with all of its obvious richness, the 2007 maintains gorgeous freshness, one of the many virtues of Cabernet Franc. Today the 2007 is irresistible, but it has more than enough depth to drink well for a number of years.

Much lower key and more restrained – oaky rather than fruity – than the 2008. Racy and rather elegant. Dry finish. (JR)
100% Cabernet Franc. Very ripe nose. Mildly aromatic but with lots of sweetness, even a hint of oak still. But very well made and balanced. Mild and more fragrant and polished than a Cabernet Sauvignon would be. A little bit of alcohol on the end. Pretty marked tannins at the moment. A slight green note at the end. (JR)
The 2007 Paleo Rosso (Cabernet Franc) offers up compelling, nuanced layers of smoke, dark cherries, mocha and grilled herbs in a style that reveals considerable richness and opulence but also quite a bit of verve, minerality and sheer structure. The wine has begun to shut down considerably since it was bottled and will require quite a bit of patience. Still, it is impossible to miss the silkiness of the tannins, the impeccable purity of the finish and the wine's exceptional overall sense of harmony. This brilliant effort will be a joy to follow over the coming years.
