winemaker's notes:

Marciliano is one of the greatest expressions of Cabernet from Central Italy. It has a profound dark purple color and offers complex aromas of cassis, herbs, tobacco and slate. Layers of blackberries and licorice are evident on the nose and on the palate, while the chewy tannins frame an austere yet elegant and dense structure. Long-lived and full-bodied, Marciliano is best-served with rich meat-based dishes. A great wine for Cabernet lovers.

"The 2005 Marciliano (70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Cabernet Franc) is a big wine that explodes from the glass with dark fruit, sweet herbs, licorice and French oak. This engaging, harmonious wine possesses terrific overall balance, not to mention enough freshness to continue to drink well for several years. It is a commendable effort in this challenging vintage." 91 Points

The Wine Advocate

"Displays blackberry and currant, with hints of dark chocolate and herbs. Medium- to full-bodied, with good fruit and a long finish. Best after 2008. 1,900 cases made."
