Best Italian full-bodied red wine of the year: As much as I love the three “B’s” of Italian wine (Barolo, Barbaresco and Brunello) my vote goes to the 2010 Guastaferro Taurasi Primum, a heady mix of ripe red fruit, tar and licorice aromas and flavors with some age on them.

So f-ing good! Dark cherries, herbs, leather, hint of tobacco, bit of jam, just evolves. Great tannin. This has many years ahead of it and it will be savory!
