Campo Al Mare Bolgheri 2004
Campo al Mare is a deep ruby color with violet reflections. It shows aromas of small red woodland fruits with notes of licorice and discreet oak in the background. On the palate, the wine is full and velvety in texture, with the aromatic impressions confirmed in the flavors, finishing on a long, silky note. Wine Advocate ampo al Mare, owned by the Folonari family, is located in Castagneto Carducci. Consulting oenologist Attilio Pagli has turned out another gem in this 2004 Bolgheri Rosso. A highly attractive blend of 60% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Cabernet Franc aged in barrique, it presents expressive notes of ripe dark fruit, sweet toasted oak, earthiness and minerals along with a soft, open-textured personality. Although it may not be the most complex wine to come out of the region it offers much drinking pleasure at a very reasonable price. It should drink well over the next five or so years. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2012. Score: 89. —Antonio Galloni, February 2007. |
