Expect juicy red and black bramble fruit combined with pronounced red plum notes and sweet spice notes. The tannins are fine grained and provide a great backbone to this complex and powerful wine. The wine needs decanting in youth to unleash the wine's true finesse.
The 2019 Palafreno, 100% Merlot from Greve's Ruffoli district, is stunning, not to mention one of the greatest wines I have ever tasted here. Silky, plush and exceptionally vivid in the glass, the Palafreno possesses breathtaking beauty that captivates all the senses. At this early stage, the 2019 is all primary dark fruit, but the layers will start to open with cellaring. Readers who can find it should not hesitate. It's a real head turner.
