($220) Good deep red. Nuanced nose combines raspberry, woodsmoke and an intriguing element of roasted herbs. Sweeter than the Brunate and higher-pitched, with strawberry and cherry fruit enlivened by balsamic and eucalyptus notes. Very complex, juicy wine that's currently a bit more typically backward than the Brunate, and just beginning to unfold .spanstyle='mso-spacerunyes' spanThebigbutripetannins arrive very late, allowing the fruit to expand on the back end.

Dark ruby. The 2001 Cerequio is an outstanding effort, and displays a deep, captivating nose of roses, spices and macerated cherries, which melds seamlessly into layers of ripe dark fruit, offering great persistence on the palate and a lingering note of minerality on the finish. This is a wine of tremendous overall beauty and harmony.
