CRITIC REVIEWS
Walter Speller
Mid mature-looking ruby. Sweet, opulently perfumed herbs and hints of dried fruit and dried orange. A little spiky and very lifted acidity. Lots of energy and quite bold tannin. Perhaps a little drying on the finish. Shows breeding, but less flattering than 2005. Very slow but long and complex finish. Freshness is key. Mid weight. (WS)

What a wine. In a year where the rainfall was more than two times the norm Giacomo really impresses. This wine is an ever evolving (even in the glass!) experience. On the nose it has fresh mint and licorice then a wave of roses, berries, and cherries. On the palate there is more of the same, tons of berries, licorice and roses. Incredibly full and ultra-velvety. This is a dense wine that does not lack depth and focus. Breathtaking balance and a incredible finish that is measured in minutes not seconds. Harmonious.
