| 2002 Tenuta di Arceno Arcanum II Red Wine: Brilliant and garnet red...this Merlot-based Super Tuscan attacks the senses with aromas of plums and black currants, slowly giving way to floral tones and a hint of coconut. Plump, lush, balanced the wine has elegant, velvety, rolling tannins that softly seduce the mouth, setting the stage for an explosion of sweet black cherries and licorice. Gently, the subtle depths of cacao appear and the wine shows a tantalizingly cinnamon spice finish. 68% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Sangiovese 88 Points Wine Spectator Issue: Web Only (2004).
