Wine Spectator, 94 points – Very rich and powerful, with amazing aromas of rose and blackberry. Full and very rich, with round tannins and a long, bright finish. Hard to resist. This is the newest vineyard of Grasso and one hell of a wine. Best after 2010 Wine Information: Intensely ruby red the Plicotti has a complex nose, densely layering the fine aromas of fruit (plum and blackberry), spice, and vanilla.  Full-bodied on the palate this wine is smooth and fresh on the palate, extremely tasty, with velvety tannins and an intense finish. Nebbiolo – 100% Vineyard age (year of planting): Nebbiolo: 1965 Soil type: Calcarous Exposure: Southeast Vinification and ageing: Maceration on the skins for 5-6 days in temperature-controlled steel rotary fermentors.  Malolactic fermentation and ageing in new French-oak barriques for 24 months.
