If you ask Andrea Franchetti to name his two favorite vintages of the past, they are 2001 and 2009. The 2009 Tenuta di Trinoro is indeed an outstanding blend of 40% Cabernet Franc, 30% Merlot, 26% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Petit Verdot. The wine is showing beautifully right now and promises more excellence to carry it forward over the years. At the moment, it is seamless and infinite with a superior sense of balance and dark fruit integrity. It speaks in a loud, clear and articulate voice. The wine's appearance shows a dark, impenetrable color that underlines the ideal growing conditions of the vintage and the slow fruit-ripening. The aromas are stunning and perfectly balanced, showing both elegance and power. The tannins deliver dimension and a firmly unyielding quality that bodes very well for the future evolution of this stunning wine.

Well-defined flavors of black cherry, black currant, raspberry, vanilla and chocolate mark this rich, dense and tannic red. Tight and compact on the finish, this will need time to hit its stride. Gains suppleness and length with air. Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. Best from 2016 through 2025. 700 cases made. –BS

42% Merlot, 42% Cabernet Franc, 12% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Petit Verdot. Merlot picked 27 September to 1 October. Cabernet Franc picked 5, 9, 13, 20 October. Cabernet Sauvignon picked 21 October and 1 November. Petit Verdot picked 27 October. Magnum. Bright, dark crimson. Not that expressive on the nose. Intensely sweet and ripe. A bit of a bruiser. Needs food! Pretty hot and a bit 'thick'. Gritty. Just a bit too much. Fades a bit on the end.
