Parker about Sammarco 1996
The Sammarco (an 85% Cabernet Sauvignon/15% Sangiovese blend aged 18-24 months in wood) offers a Graves-like nose of scorched earth, charcoal, tobacco, and red and black currants. In the mouth, roasted nut flavors add complexity. The wine possesses medium body, a stylish, elegant personality, not much power or force, but fine purity and balance. The tannin results in a slight astringency in the back of the mouth.
