"A step above in terms of focus and sharpness, the 2007 Alter Ego delivers the blockbuster tannins of Sagrantino (95%) with just a hint of sweet cherry that comes from the small addition of Merlot. Indian spice, resin, leather, toasted espresso and candied blackberry all play supporting roles. The wine would benefit from a few more year of bottle aging. Drink: 2015-2022."
