1994 Castello dei Rampolla Sammarco Toscana IGTSuperTuscan Blend more |
3/24/2024 - msayers1994 Likes this wine: 95 pointsWow this was good. Pop and pour and it was ready to go. Sour cherry, clay, spice. Lots of earthy notes. Soft tannins and a long finish. I'll reiterate what another user here said - I am bummed I don't have more in the cellar! |

3/24/2024 - sburtt Likes this wine: 91 pointsquite natural and interesting, needs time to reveal, initially felt quite evolved, maybe the hot year, notes of port/marsala, but with time it goes away and reveals beautiful harmony, enjoyed the most after 2-3hours we opened the bottle |

3/15/2024 - Tschudix Likes this wine: 92 pointsPnP. Great tertiary aromas (tobacco, leather). Tasty nose / palate of ripe (black) fruits (cherry, currant). Nice tannin structure with high acidity. Medium finish. Good value for money. |

3/11/2024 - MAXIMUM SATISFACTION wrote: 94 pointsDrank for a magnum that was decanted for a few hours. Personally I found this ready to go after some time open. That said I am never a huge fan of Italian Cabernet Sauvignon. It has all the dark ripe characters or Napa or Bordeaux but a sour astringency that is not my favorite. |

3/6/2024 - deadwax Likes this wine: 93 pointsDouble decanted for regular wine group about 4 hours. Was very good but wonder if more air would have helped. This stood along well with higher competition. This could go on for at least several more years at least. |

3/5/2024 - liber Likes this wine: 92 points11th of 12, opened an hour then splash decanted, perfect level, cork third stained, little changed from last bottle in Aug 22, now quite round and layered, ,tannins mostly resolved, attractive enough but not a stellar vintage for this wine, plateau but no rush. F (17.5). |

2/24/2024 - mcromain1021 Likes this wine: 91 pointsVery nice Chianti. Popped and poured. Dark and red fruits are prominent. Typical Sangiovese notes with reasonable tannins. Rampolla is a top notch producer and this wine shows well and will continue to do so for several years. |

2/25/2024 - gediminasbielskus Likes this wine: 86 pointsNice to drink, but one note, lacks definition and medium in its intensity. Nothing about this wine would define it in a blind tasting. Only had one bottle , so not sure if this is typical. |

2/25/2024 - Dionysos55 Likes this wine: 90 pointsLégère déception sur cette cuvée.Robe bien évoluée.Bouquet d'intensité moyenne qui offre des senteurs de sous-bois,de terre mouillée de fruits rouges (cerise,framboise).La bouche est relativement souple avec 80% CS en cépage majoritaire.Longueur finale bonne sans être grandiose.J'en attendais beaucoup plus vu la qualité globale du millésime et de surcroit je ne suis pas certain que des années supplémentaires en cave vont le bonifier davantage.A boire. |

2/25/2024 - Jabulani Likes this wine: 90 pointsShowing its age, but shakes off the initial funk (which has apparently been a character of this wine since 2004!) to come together into a complex old Tuscan wine, lacking varietal character, but certainly enjoyable. Not a great vintage, not a wine which should have been aged this long, so your mileage may vary, but this bottle was decent. |

2/21/2024 - heathenone@msn.com Likes this wine: 93 points2 hours after a double decant, and some some in a glass, this wine was singing! Beautiful full deep color, followed by dark berries on the nose, and more dark berrries, pencil lead, and with some christmas spice on the palate. Palate was full bodied, and went great with the Rib eye and the pasta/bolognese sauce at Ca Dario Montecito. Still has years to go. The goup enjoyed it and rated it in the middle of the pack of 10 wines. |

2/21/2024 - Joshvoulters Likes this wine: 91 pointsQuite a lot of Chianti (Must & Lees, Warren Street): Really good. Saturated dark cherry, spicy oak, violet, vanilla: contained but deep. Clearly of breeding from a quality producer - a contrast of high toned perfume with fruit depth. Subtly concentrated on the palate with a bitter edge, fine tannins. |

2/17/2024 - Larre Likes this wine: 95 pointsNice evolvement since the last bottle two years ago. Still young, but a great performance with delicate cherrie fruit, well-balanced oak, and a nice tannic structure. Very stylish and promising. 95+ |

2/11/2024 - beatles wrote: 91 pointsThis opens very tight and opens very slowly. Tasted over three days, does not move much, though wee hints of oxidation is showing on the last day. Red berries, herbs, quite pronounced tannin, accent on the fresh fruit. |

2/8/2024 - SpoochMan Likes this wine: 95 pointsBrought to Lento for recruitment dinner. This bottle was stellar. Took a little while to open up, but then it had good fruit, a velvety smooth texture, and lots of nice secondary/tertiary flavors. Probably a bit past peak overall, but this was a really nice mature wine. Hope my last bottle is as good. |

1997 Castello dei Rampolla Vigna d'AlceoToscana IGT Red Bordeaux Blend more |
5/7/2010 - rikipedia Likes this wine: 94 pointsWine Cellar Food & Wine - Italy Super Tuscan (Auslese, Cape Town): (Tasted Blind):An expressive bouquet of intense black fruits, cherry, earth, cinnamon, and bramble combined with an undercurrent of wood bark. The palate persists with black fruit, tobacco and some star anise. Whilst rich, sumptuous, and powerful, the tannins are noticeable and give a firm grip and solidity. The acidity is high, and there is an undertone of sour cherry. Full-bodied, the wine has a pretty hefty extract if not quite the depth of a top example. Yet all things said this is a cracking wine! |
