8.8

As I begin my exploration into new age Italian wines it seemed appropriate to begin with a super tuscan. The caberbet sauvignon keeps the wine familiar while the sangiovese provides the much needed insight into the rustic, astringent wines I hope to taste in the future. The wine is complex enough to satisfy my over analytical, contemplative nature. However, the seamless transition between the two varietals here makes for a wine that is easy to drink and relax. — 9 years ago

Delicious fruit forward Merlot that somehow retains the tannic complexity one expects from a cab. A bottle filled with delicious juxtapositions and contradciting taste notes. — 9 years ago
