Still a bit angular and rustic in its early years, the 2012 will now - after several years of deserved bottle maturity - reveal the true potential of a Radici Taurasi. Opulent, warm bouquet of cherries and black berries, along with spicy and wild herbal notes. On the palate it is finely woven, elegant and envelopingly silky, the fullness and complexity of this Aglianico inspires more with every sip. Even though it can mature for many years, it is already an unforgettable pleasure. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2012 Taurasi Radici is still in the process of integrating. Under that sweet spice and toast, you definitely get a clear glimpse of the pretty fruit below. Morello cherry and dried blackberry give substance and fiber to the core of this robust red wine." Robert Parker

"Black-walnut, blackberry and black-olive aromas follow through to a full body, round and chewy tannins and a flavorful finish. Very rich and intense." James Suckling

"Underbrush, red fruit, dark spice and a whiff of menthol are some of the aromas that come together on this. The firmly structured elegant palate offers ripe plum, red cherry, licorice and tobacco framed in youthfully austere fine-grained tannins that need time to unwind." Wine Enthusiast

"Lovely hints of spice box, graphite and violet accent the pure black currant and black cherry fruit in this harmonious, full-bodied red. There's good density to this focused version, with savory wild herb and tarry mineral details showing on the creamy, lingering finish." Wine Spectator
