Score 92/100 · Drink 2016-2028, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jun 2011

Regaleali's 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon bursts from the glass with a melange of super-ripe black fruit, blueberry jam, espresso, tar and sweet spices. It is an explosive wine that comes close to being over the top yet manages to retain balance despite its extroverted personality.

Regaleali's 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon bursts from the glass with a melange of super-ripe black fruit, blueberry jam, espresso, tar and sweet spices. It is an explosive wine that comes close to being over the top yet manages to retain balance despite its extroverted personality. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2028. From top to bottom this is an impressive set of wines from Tasca d'Almerita. The estate seems to have honed in on a refined style across the entire range.
