Tenuta di Trinoro Palazzi 2020

The 2020 Palazzi is 100% Merlot made according to the highest standards by a winemaker, the late Andrea Franchetti, who strived for perfection. From his beloved Tenuta di Trinoro in Sarteano, with its infinite skies and rolling landscapes, this wine shows plump fruit, blackberry, plum, spice and campfire ash. From a hot vintage, the fruit is beautifully ripened but certainly not in an exaggerated manner. The wine shows softness, tension and supple texture. This bottle awards a lot of intensity and charm. Drink date: 2024-2045. Score – 97. (Monica Larner, robertparker.com, May 31, 2023)
