Note di degustazione
The 2001 La Ricolma is dense, powerful and explosive. Super-ripe black cherry fruit, chocolate, leather, spice and menthol all open up in the glass. The 2001 has quite a bit of richness, but also a certain rusticity in the tannins that is impossible to escape. There is little question the 2001 belongs to a previous era at San Giusto, a time when the fruit was picked almost a month earlier than is the case today.

The 2001 Ricolma, the estate’s Merlot, features ample plum and raisin fruit and mocha, a satiny texture, and a warm, enveloping finish. In terms of finesse, it is first-rate, but here as well, the 1997 and 1999 had an extra dimension of volume and richness. Drink: 2001-2018.
