Winemaker Notes
Scipio 2017 is a rich, deep and complex wine that interprets what was a particularly warm and sunny year. The taste reveals a great balance due to a high natural acidity that gives a pleasant freshness and firmness.
Professional Ratings
96Jeb Dunnuck
The 2017 Scipio is entirely composed of Cabernet Franc and was raised in French oak for 20 months, followed by another 20 months in bottle before release. It is opulent with blackberry compote, eucalyptus, cedar, and sweet tobacco. Plush and polished, it has full body, velvety tannins, a ripe core of concentrated blue and black fruit, and a long finish. Its oak is wonderfully integrated and balanced, and the wine is impressive without being overblown.
93James Suckling
A fresh, lively red with cherry, cedar and lightly toasted oak. Medium body, medium-chewy tannins and a lively finish. Needs time to come together, but fresh and vivid for the hot vintage.
90Wine Enthusiast
Made entirely with Cabernet Franc, this offers aromas of toasted oak, green bell pepper and ripe dark-skinned fruit. The dense palate features black-currant jam, clove and sage alongside grainy tannins and a tart, drying finish.
