Firriato Ribeca 2014

James Suckling: 91pts

The dried-clove and roasted-nutmeg character is very endearing, and the dried cherries and redcurrants are pretty. Rich and flavorful, but firm and dialed-in, this sports a lithe complexion of tannins. Drink now.

Wine Advocate: 90pts 

The 2014 Sicilia Perricone Ribeca is a dense red wine with a sharp and well-defined bouquet. You get generous tones of black fruit, dried cherry, pipe tobacco and camphor ash. This is a full-bodied red to pair with grilled meats or fennel-stuffed pork. There is a lot of power here with almost 15% alcohol. Some 38,000 bottles were produced.
