WS Insider - issue Sep. 09, 2009
  • Do Ut Des 2007 : 94 pts
    Very ripe and intense on the nose, with prune, licorice, blackberries and flowers. Full-bodied, with chewy tannins and a long, powerful finish, with lots of toasted oak and ripe fruit. Full-throttle style. Sangiovese, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best after 2012.—J.S.
