D'Isanto & D'Isanto
I Balzini White Label Colli della Toscana Centrale Sangiovese Cabernet Sauvignon 2006
Drank 7/2/29. Great with a t-bone.
Sangiovese and Cab. Magnum. Nose of plums, pencil lead, and cherries, with earthy notes that suggest it's Tuscan heritage. Red and black fruits, with tannins that are still present, but open up after a 30 minute decant. Nicely balanced, with sour cherry, earth, and leather, backed by dusty tannins on the finish. This will hold for a few more years, but at 13 years, is unlikely to improve.
