Killer super Tuscan. My favorite kind, with a good amount of Sangiovese in it. Mouth watering.

Needs to be decanted and likely also needs more time in bottle.

A beautiful blend of Sangiovese, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot that accompanies a robust pasta dish with great zeal. Ruby red and long legs in the glass, it is medium bodied with chewy tannins. Highly rated by Wine Spectator, higher than the “experts” on here. Decant or leave open in a glass for 20 minutes before drinking. 👍🏻

Once decanted, magnificent. Full mouth of luscious dark berries with a lingering finish that begs for the next sip. Wonderful with red sauce on pasta. A great complement to nearly any Italian meal. If decanted for a couple hours, my bet is most of the other lower rated reviews would be much improved. Doesn’t need more bottle time. Just needs to be enjoyed! (And it requires food to bring out its depth and character the most! If I may be so bold, I recommend your favorite pasta with Emeril’s vodka sauce. Cannot beat it.)

Somewhat sweet but dry at the finish on the tongue. The blend is on point. Would drink again for sure. By the bottle. Drank in Pisa with the wife

Perfect Segway from Italian to new world. Italian structure and spice with some dominant fruit.
