2013 Cepparello, Isole e Olena, Tuscany, Italy Hidden Gem La Geynale is a fourA cool and wet start to the year was saved by a warm and sunny July through to September. Harvested midOctober. Mulchy aromas of hedgerow berries and medicinal hints lead to an intense and ripe palate, chewy and textured with grippy, sandy tannins, gumtingling acidity and balsamic freshness. It's a softer expression than the 2010; a bit more fruitforward and drinking well now. 93 100, James Button, Decanter (January 2023)
