The 2007 Vigorello is a rare wine from this vintage that will require cellaring. Big, massive tannins provide the backdrop for dark blue and black fruit, grilled herbs, espresso and French oak. The intense, extroverted personality needs time to emerge, but this should be a striking wine in a few years. Whether the tannins will ever be fully resolved is another question entirely. In 2007 Vigorello is 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot and 10% Petit Verdot. Anticipated maturity: 2017-2027.
