Score 91/100 · Drink 2001-2009, Robert Parker, Oct 2001
One of Terrabianca's finest cuvees is Campaccio. The 1997 (a 6,000-case blend of 70% Sangiovese and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon aged one year in primarily French oak) is a complex, deep ruby-colored wine displaying scents of saddle leather, dried Provencal herbs, and subtle toasty oak. It is medium to full-bodied, with excellent depth, superb purity, and an open-knit, complex, structured personality. Delicious now, it promises to evolve for 7-8 years.
