Tenuta Meraviglia Bolgheri Rosso 2020, Tuscany, Italy

It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Nice nose with red and blue fruits, light wood, spices, tobacco leaf, herbs and light vegetables.

Medium bodied with medium plus acidity.

Dry on the palate with cherries, plums, raspberries, spices, dark chocolates, black pepper and earth.

Short and bitter finish with fine grained tannins.

This is an interesting take on Cabernet Franc from Tuscany. Doesn't drink like one, but easy drinking and good by itself or with food. Elegant and tangy.

100% Cabernet Franc grapes were aged for 12 months in large Chianti wood barrels.

14% alcohol by volume.

89 points.

Bright red. Sweet spice, ripe red cherry, licorice and flowers on the nose and in the mouth. Smooth and bright, and though not exactly the last word in concentration or complexity, this is downright irresistible in its juicy, fruity appeal. Podere Brizio recently changed ownership and now belongs to Dievole, the Chianti Classico producer (Podere Brizio’s previous owner, Roberto Bellini, is the man who sold the Chiesa di Santa Restituta estate to Gaja, who renamed it Pieve di Santa Restituta).

100% Sangiovese. Bright garnet with a ruby core. Aromas of black cherry, violets, wet potting soil and leather. The palate features black cherry/raspberry flavors with additional notes of tobacco, pepper spice and baking spices. Long and earthy finish. Fine tannins and firm (but bright) acidity. Soft texture and well balanced. Quite good. — 7 months ago
