Mitolo Serpico Cabernet Sauvignon 2010 (91 WS)
“Rich and ripe, dense with jammy black currant and blackberry flavors that push against a refined grip of tannins, finishing plush and expressive. The tannins need time to soften.”

“Serpico” was a famous New York police officer who wasn’t afraid to ‘work against the grain’. With Serpico, Mitolo aims to step outside its peers and redefine the accepted style of Cabernet making. Serpico is a 100% Cabernet made in the Amarone method to achieve intense aromas, and a concentrated viscous middle palate with soft and silky tannins.
