2014 Cavalli IGT Tenuta Degli Dei, Toskana

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 2014 Cavalli IGT, Tenuta Degli Dei

Aged in oak for 18 months, the 2014 Cavalli is a blend of mostly Cabernet Sauvignon with smaller parts Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. This is a darkly extracted and contemporary wine that delivers ample muscle and power despite the cooler and rainy growing season. In appearance, this blended red reveals a deep ruby color with purplish highlights. The fruit is immediate and intense with cherry liqueur and blackberry preserves. Like the other wines from the current Tenuta degli Dei lineup, this wine sports a raw and fresh personality (with less intensity and density compared to some of the warmer vintages that precede this one). - Monica Larner, Okt. 2017

Wine Spectator - 2014 Cavalli IGT, Tenuta Degli Dei

Bright black currant and blackberry flavors are aligned with a vibrant structure in this sinewy red. The tannins are on the dry side, but this shows very good balance overall. Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. Drink now through 2022. 2,050 cases made. - Feb. 2018
