Andrea Franchetti simply nailed 2012. These are some of the most impressive wines I have ever tasted from Tenuta di Trinoro. As always, the wines are built on a total lushness and texture. When young, the Trinoro wines can sometime seem too intense, but with a little bottle age they truly begin to blossom. I tasted the 2012s twice a few months apart and was totally blown away both times. Readers who can find the 2012s should not hesitate, as they are truly magnificent. As good as the flagship Tenuta di Trinoro is, the Cupole remains one of the very best relative values in handmade, artisanal wines. Over the last few years, the Cabernet Franc Magnacosta and Merlot Palazzi have been real head-turners.
