The 2016 Solengo is a wonderful showing in this vintage, the blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Merlot and Sangiovese combines gorgeous fruit with lovely terroir driven characteristics. Aromas of dark cherries, plums, damp earth, leather, tobacco and hints of spicy oak all take shape beautifully in the glass. The palate is full-bodied and structured, with a firm spine supported by velvety tannins that are not overbearing at this youthful stage. This is a simply faboulus vintage for Solengo and while it is already impressive it will only become more compelling as it evolves over the next decade.
