Selvagrossa is one of the most fascinating emerging properties in the Marche. The Cabernet Franc Poveriano in particular is showing remarkable potential. Brothers Alessandro and Alberto Taddei certainly seem to be on the right track, even if 2008 didn't give them the conditions to match their superb 2007s. |
89/100 » POVERIANO 2008 • "The 2008 Poveriano (Cabernet Franc) emerges from the glass with expressive dark red fruit, grilled herbs, licorice and spices. Initially a touch compact, the wine fills out nicely on the mid-palate and finish. The 2008 is a relatively understated Poveriano that is best enjoyed on the early side. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2023". --AG
|
87/100 » TRIMPILIN 2008 • "The 2008 Trimpilin (Sangiovese) shows limited depth in its fruit, with hard, angular tannins that clamp down on the finish. Both bottles I tasted were lean and compact, suggesting underripe fruit. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2015". --AG
|
87/100 » MUSCHÉN 2009 • "The 2009 Muschen is a pretty entry-level red. Sweet floral and red berry flavors come together nicely in this mid-weight, fresh wine meant for near-term enjoyment. Muschen is 50% Sangiovese, 30% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2014". --AG

92/100 » POVERIANO 2007 • "The 2007 Poveriano (Cabernet Franc) is truly beautiful. Here the French oak is much more complementary to the dark, varietal Cabernet Franc fruit. Wild herbs, minerals and espresso develop in the glass, adding further layers of complexity. Sweet, silky tannins round out the layered finish. This is one of the more distinctive, unique wines I tasted from central Italy this year, and it is highly recommended. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2019". | AG |
90/100 » TRIMPILIN 2007 • "The 2007 Trimpilin (Sangiovese) is a round, generous wine laced with perfumed dark fruit, spices, minerals and flowers. This is a fairly rich style of Sangiovese, and while a little more varietal character might be nice, the wine’s elegance and finesse are commendable. With a little more measured use of French oak the Trimpilin could be a significantly more complex and interesting bottle. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2017". | AG |
"These are two very fine reds from brothers Alessandro and Alberto Taddei. Selvagrossa continues to make a case for itself as one of the Marche’s most fascinating emerging properties". |

89/100 » TRIMPILIN 2006 • "The 2006 Trimpilin is a gorgeous, vibrant red loaded with perfumed dark fruit, flowers and sweet French oak. This is a delicious wine to enjoy over the next few years. Proprietor Alberto Taddei cut his teeth at the famed Enoteca Pinchiorri in Florence, and Trimpilin was the colorful nickname proprietor Giorgio Pinchiorri coined for him. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2012". | AG |
"This is the first wine I have tasted from Selvagrossa, a young property located in Pesaro. The estate is owned by brothers Alessandro and Alberto Taddei, while Jurij Fiore of Il Carbonaione in Tuscany advises on the wines". |
