The 2006 Rosso Conero Casirano is a gorgeous red graced with expressive red fruit, flowers, tobacco, earthiness and licorice, all of which are woven together in a medium-bodied frame. Still a touch firm, the Casirano could benefit from another 6-12 months in bottle. The Casirano is predominantly Montepulciano, with 8% Syrah and 7% Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2021.
These are two delicious wines from Conte Leopardi.
