Tenuta Le Colonne 2020

The organic Tenuta le Colonne 2020 Bolgheri Superiore (in a heavy glass bottle) shows sweet-smelling cherry and Jolly Rancher with cedar oak and spice. The wine is full-bodied to be sure, with hints of clove and peppermint to close. The hot-vintage fruit feels rich but not especially complex. This is a very generous blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Cabernet Franc. Drink date: 2024-2037. Score – 94. (Monica Larner, robertparker.com, Feb. 15, 2024)
