The 2007 Bottaccio shows lovely inner sweetness and depth in its red berries, dried flowers and baking spices. Initially generous, the wine finds its center on the mid-palate, then finishes with pin-point clarity and focus. Though already a touch forward in its aromas and flavors, the slightly firm tannins will need another year or two to melt away. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2019.
