93-94. Getting into the sweetest spot at the moment I recon. Nice and pleasant wine for EVERYONE. Nose calling immediately to Bordeaux, then the wRm feeling comes thru and it brings you straight to Tuscany. Nice wine. Great p/q ratio. — a month ago

Dark ruby with dark purple red core. Black cherry Kuchen and terra cotta dominate the nose and medium palate. Juicy medium plus acidity. Fine, medium plus tannins bat cleanup. What's not to love about Caiarossa's entry-level red? Everything you want in a Toscana at this price point. Great with food (I'm having penne with sausage… you can try a southwestern steak with a baked potato), and a tasty autumn sipper all with enough "stuff" to lay down for a short while. Drink now through 2030. Preferably now. — 2 years ago

9.1

Star bright yellow gold. Inviting nose of chalky lemon rind. Medium palate confirms the nose adding lime (the fruit), lime (the mineral), and green apple. Firm acidity from entry to the moderate finish which adds cilantro and cucumber that takes over the roof of the mouth. Wonderfully complex Super Tuscan white (Viognier and Chardonnay). Mediterranean fare is, of course, a natural -- Bronzino comes racing to mind -- but try with any seafood, lighter poultry, or cream sauce. Drink now through 2027. — 10 months ago

Sipping Fine Wine

9.2

A blend of 70% Sangiovese and 30% Merlot and Cabernet Franc, deep Ruby with aromas of red fruits, floral, herbs and smoky oak. On the palate flavors of ripe blackberry, cherry and plum flavors with dried herb notes, cacao, tobacco and toasty notes. Fine ripe sweet tannins, long finish ending with fruit and an earthy smoky herb mineral spice character. Nice! — 6 months ago
