So smooth. Not sure if this is right wine. Great flavor. A bit watery?

Medium bodied. Still a bit hot after 30 min in decanter. I'm not loving it but I have another 30 min of baby sitter time so will update if it improves.

Nice Tuscan red...medium bodied, medium ruby color, nose of dark red fruits and leather, nice balance of tannins, acidity, fruit...medium length finish. Not too astringent or racy. For the price, good QPR Italian red.

Beautiful garnet color in the glass. Such a graceful bouquet of leather, truffles, mushrooms with just a slight hint of vanilla. Big and full bodied, the palate is coffee, herbs, more leather, and fruit as dark as night. Firm tannins and an exquisite long finish. Stunning stuff for the price.
