Duemani

Altrovino Toscana IGT Merlot Cabernet Franc 2018

O wow. This is something!
A Merlot/ Cab Franc blend from halfway between Pisa and Piombino.
Vinified in cement & clay, aged in wood., biodynamic.
Very, very Bordeaux’esque. Very St. Emilion.
Black currants, plums, black currant leaf & a touch of dark cherries. Sweet & plush yet savoury. With a touch of allspice, black pepper, bay leaf, a hint of roast. Fresh, juicy.
Amazing precision on the palate, plush yet juicy, rich yet vibrant. I love the super fine, polished tannins. And the balamce between black currant freshness and savoury, spicy, earthy character.
Complex yet so lovely & drinkable.
Unexpectedly, this is brilliant stuff!

Borgo Scopeto (Tenuta Caparzo)

Borgonero Toscana IGT SuperTuscan Blend 2015

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 — 6 years ago

Caiarossa

Toscana Super Tuscan Blend 2009

Caiarossa is located in Riparbella, mid-Tuscany, Province of Pisa. The closeness to the sea has given this mix of Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Sangiovese and Alicante freshness, delicacy and elegance. Dark fruit flavoured, but not over the top. Excellent wine! — 3 years ago

Sono Montenidoli

Tradizionale Vernaccia di San Gimignano 2015

Exactly what it should be! I am here in Pisa- central Tuscany- and enjoying a wine from the region with food from the area. This family is a many generation making wine. It is 3 years old and it is fresh and long and balanced with fruit, spice and acidity. Bravo! — 6 years ago

Well structured Bordeaux-style blend (60% Cab, 40% Cab Franc) from Pisa, Tuscany. Great depth, freshness and colour with aromatic dark fruity notes. Interesting and unique find from an extensive Jacobs & Co wine list. 92 — 6 years ago
