The 2007 Campaccio is beautifully ripe and succulent in its dark, extroverted fruit. In 2007, Campaccio veers on the edge of overripeness but there is just enough acidity to keep things in check. French oak, smokiness, new leather and licorice add depth to the rich, creamy finish. I am not sure how the 2007 will age, but it should provide highly pleasurable drinking for at least another decade. Campaccio is 70% Sangiovese and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon. Anticipated maturity: '12 - '22.
Terrabianca tends to bottle later than most estates in Tuscany. Consequently, most years I review the wines from barrel rather than bottle, an approach I now realize does not show these wines in the best possible light. Readers will find much to admire in these delicious, endowed reds.
