Caiarossa 2019

Caiarossa

Case Format: 6x75cl

Max score: 96.0

The purest expression of their vineyards, Caiarossa shows all the complexity and the nobility of the land. The seven varieties (Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Sangiovese, Petit Verdot, Alicante) in the blend weave together a perfect tapestry of the estate’s terroir. A true expression of the luxury of nature. Super elegant, blackberries and cheries dominate the palate. Enticing nose of dark fruit, cherry, leather, mushroom, eucalyptus and fine cedar. Persistent but not too bold with elegant finish.

CRITIC REVIEWS

16.5
Tom Parker MW

Harvested slightly later than usual, 6–30 September. A blend of 26% Syrah, 24% Cabernet Franc, 23% Merlot, 14% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Petit Verdot, 4% Sangiovese and 2% Grenache. Peppery with red-cherry fruit and oily brambles, there is a high-toned note very typical of Tuscan reds. The tannins are chalky, softening to a lightly powdery texture with positively zesty acidity set against fleshy red fruits. Hints of darker plum tones come through on the finish. Ample power but matched by freshness. (TP)

Richly scented plums and black cherries on the nose. Weighty and full in the mouth but smooth and soft, the fine tannins well integrated and supporting the bright strawberry, creamy red cherry and plum fruit flavours. Tannins give a chalky texture to the palate, gently supporting the fruit which has a subtle toasted spice to the finish. I love the acidity, the intensity of the sweet yet full fruit at the beginning, a smoky spiced element to the mid palate and a mineral tinged - wet stone, saline finish. Still feels very youthful. Under the same ownership as Château Giscours in Bordeaux. Blend completed after malolactic fermentation and aged for 14 months in barriques (30% new), then rests for six months in concrete tanks before being bottled. A blend of Syrah (26%), Cabernet Franc (24%), Merlot (23%) Cabernet Sauvignon (14%), Petit Verdot (7%), Sangiovese (4%) and Grenache (2%). Axel Marchal consultant.
