I
loved this wine and what a price we have. Casali di Bibbiano has decided to
change business partners in the US and we were able to grab their inventory
from the old partner at a great price. I tasted through what was available and
this wine the
2007 Casali di Bibbiano
Luminoso
was
spectacular. Super Tuscans as a category was created by us the wine industry to
classify some of Italy's finest red wines that do not fall into any legal
Italian classification. Some of world's great reds like Sassicaia, Ornelaia and
Solaia are Super Tuscans and today's Luminoso is a great bottle of wine. Casali
Di Bibbiano winery is situated Buonconvento in the Siena region, one of the
best locations for wine lovers, 25-acres hidden in the hills of Tuscany
dedicated to the cultivation of grapes that produce superb wines. The town is
an ancient settlement, along the Via Cassia, where the Arbia and Ombrone rivers
meet in the heart of the magical hills of the Crete Senesi. Owner Alberto
Guadini is a famous US restaurateur, including the famous Teca in Pennsylvania
and Salute in Florida. Guadini got tired of serving mediocre wines in his
restaurants and always dreamed of making his own wines in Tuscany. Casali di
Bibbiano was born. No money was spared to make the best possible wines. He
hired top Tuscan winemaker Gioia Cresti to make the wine. She is also winemaker
at Fattoria Carpineta Fontalpino, one of the finest in Tuscany. The 2007
Luminoso is sourced from thirty year old Sangiovese vines, low yields that is
aged for 18 months in New French oak. 2007 is a classic vintage in Tuscany and
this wine has come together brilliantly. Now I have a limited amount of the
wine at a great price.
Wine on release sold for $45, you can have for $22.99
a bottle
by the case, a 50% savings and a 92pt rating. If you love the best
from Tuscany, this is a great buy. The wine has entered it drinking window and
can be enjoyed over the next decade. We have many fans of Fontodi's wines, this
wine is very similar, same style and you cannot lose at the price.

TASTING NOTES:
This wine shows you just how great this vintage is.
Complex aromas of new saddle leather, jammy black cherry liqueur, and other
black fruits jump from the glass of this dense ruby-colored wine. There are
layers of fruit and extraction, full body, no hard edges, and an explosive, long
finish that lasts for nearly 30 seconds. The wine radiates across the palate
with elegance and class. Enjoy it now and over the next decade.
This hand-picked wine is ready to
