“The 2011 vintage was known for being an especially hot vintage and in fact harvesting started 15 days early, in the third week of August, even though the team had waited to achieve complete phenolic ripeness before picking. This 2011 Redigaffi has perfumed, smoky, ripe black cherry notes with precise and nicely controlled aromas and some powerful charred oak. On the palate it is rich and quite viscous, with a more refined quality to the tannins which have now developed a fine, silty texture.”

“This has aromas of blackberries, praline, bay leaves, bitter chocolate and black truffles. Chewy and firm tannins here, with a full body and a dark-fruited, compact palate. Muscular and dense.”
