If you put it in a blind tasting it falls face first, but if you crack it open and don’t compare it to anything it’s a rather enjoyable wine. #bolgheri #supertuscan #italy #tuscany

Easy drinking. Silky tannins, med + acidity and lean texture. Daily house wine elevated.

A blend of 70 % Cabernet Sauvignon and 30 % Sangiovese. Aromas of fresh ripe fruits with notes of earthy floral. On the palate cherry and strawberry flavors with citrus spice. Fine tannins with a slight grip, medium, coming back to a fruit ending. Enjoy now, drinking well! Tasting Sample!

Can feel the Tuscan coast here with nice ripe cherry fruit, without being obscured by oak. Drinking well now and a good solid cork popper from top estate and great vintage that doesn’t need much consideration at this price. It’s quite compact on the palate and light on its feet with minimal tannins.

빠넬로에서의 저녁, 마르게리따 부팔라 피자와 스테이크와 함께 곁들일 하프 보틀 와인으로 토스카나 와인을 골랐다. 이탈리아 와인, 넘나어려운것... 투명도가 높고 밝은 보랏빛에 이탈리아 와인답게 산도가 상당했는데, 첫 느낌은 새콤달콤의 업그레이드 버전 “새콤새콤달콤”! 살짝 느껴지는 달콤함이 감칠맛을 돋운다. 하프 보틀이라 아쉽당. 힛

이탈리안 카베르네소비뇽 & 산지오베제 블렌드 와인. 맑고 투명한 붉은 빛을 띄는 이 와인은 상큼한 베리향과 약간은 젖은듯한 흙냄새가 오늘 날씨와 묘하게 조화를 이루었다. 상큼한 산미가 기분을 업 시켜줘서 비오는 500일밤을 즐겁게 해준다. 고마워요 ^^

Not even close to it's name sake. Thin and tannic no fruit very disappointing
