Sammarco 1981

The Sammarco 1981 from Castello dei Rampolla is a legendary wine from Tuscany, known for its exceptional quality and historical significance. Castello dei Rampolla, a renowned winery in the heart of the Chianti Classico region, produces this wine as a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Sangiovese.
The 1981 vintage in Tuscany was an excellent one, offering optimal conditions for the grapes to ripen. The 1981 Sammarco displays a fascinating array of aromas on the nose, beginning with ripe dark fruits such as black cherries, plums, and blackberries. These are accompanied by notes of spice, tobacco, and a hint of leather, lending it additional complexity. A subtle mineral note rounds out the bouquet.
On the palate, the Sammarco 1981 presents itself full-bodied and powerful, with ripe, well-integrated tannins and a lively acidity. The fruity aromas continue to develop, complemented by hints of chocolate, coffee, and a touch of smoke. The wine displays remarkable balance and elegance, which continues into the long finish.
Castello dei Rampolla's 1981 Sammarco has impressive aging potential, continuing to demonstrate its quality and complexity even after many years. This vintage is a testament to the winery's craftsmanship and has received acclaim from wine critics worldwide.
