A wine where descriptors are almost superfluous. Just a brilliant mature balanced wine. If pushed I would say some licorice, roast meat and a hint of cowyard. A world class Syrah. 18.5- — 11 years ago

Wow! We did not decant this wine....a big mistake. Powerful tannins will keep this wine alive for many years. I would love to try it again in 2022. Strong earth tones with a hint of Tobacco and leather. Beautifully complex finish — 14 years ago

Why did I pass on '07s? Big mistake on my part. This is really good, and it just goes to show: buy great producers in every vintage. — 12 years ago

This vintage continues to show remarkable power, grace, elegance and minerality, framed by brilliant tannins and clever oak treatment. Truly a classic Flaccianello. — 13 years ago

Heavenly! Crushed rock, citrus, white flowers, hint of petrol. I can't stop putting my nose in the glass. Bright, juicy red apple and melon flavors. Medium bottle with sugar kept in check by brilliant acidity. Finish sails on for a minute plus. Truly one of the best! — 12 years ago
