Product Details

In Ian d'Agatha's recent article in Vinous on the wines of Campania, this one came out as the very best Taurasi and that ahead of many, better-known wines! Grandiose wine quite simply!

Ian d'Agatha: "Best Italian full-bodied red wine of the year: As much as I love the three “B’s” of Italian wine (Barolo, Barbaresco and Brunello) my vote goes to the 2010 Guastaferro Taurasi Primum, a heady mix of ripe red fruit, tar and licorice aromas and flavors with some age on them."

Wine Enthusiast:(Kerin O'Keefe): “Aromas of smoke, charred earth, dark spice and black-skinned berry lift out of the glass. The concentrated firmly structured palate offers dried black cherry, blackberry extract, ground pepper and a hint of tobacco framed in fine-grained tannins.”

Quinten Sadler: " This is a great red wine. Try it if you can"

Morell: "WOW.The nose showed dark, earthy, rich fruit, with sweet lifting herbal and dysty florals, ashen-minerality and balsamic notes. On the palate, I found velvety textures offset by sweet-and-sour dark red plummy fruits, with zesty acids addding lift as citrus tinged minerals and spice saturated the senses. The finish was long and structured with wood-infused dark red fruit." 95/100
