This Italian Cabernet based blend is pleasant , the nose is complex are rich with earthy notes, coffee, graphite, chocolate, dark fruits, cassis and cherries, medium to full body with firm tannins and a lovely supporting acidity. The finish is lightly dry and elegant. My score 89, drink to 2022

When first opened it was generic and lame but with an hour it is really turning into something special. Beautiful nose (albeit showing a lot of vanilla and oak) but with Bolgheri class. Saline, red cherry and cola followed by mild dill. It is a beautifully crafted wine that needs time to show itself. I would love to see this in 10 years. Modern and seriously well built. Class act

2 nights in Pitigliano, 2 bottles of this. Couldn't resist. Would it be any different? Yes, and it was even better on the second night. (And 38 euros instead of 40.) Less plum, more earth, chalk, and elegance. Bottle variation can be very interesting.

My favorite super Tuscan comes through again. Bone dry plums, chalk, green pepper, and Mediterranean herbs. That may not sound like a winning combo of flavors but somehow this wine pulls it off. Not as elegant as the 2010 but just as interesting.
