Dark fruit, tobacco, leather. Slightly chewy texture with good mouthfeel. Decent Bdx blend from Tuscany and much less expensive than its peers.

Definitely a winner for Christmas Eve. Dark fruit, long finish. Put the wine we were drinking before dinner to shame.

Scents of walnut and cedar...notes of black fruit and toasted bread. In the mouth, silkiness and freshness interweave with an excellent web of tannins leading to an excellent and long finish. Probably has ten more years in it...

At $35 it is what you expect for a more premium vintage. Refined with dry flavorful finish

Very earthy and leather with a lot of clove on the finish. Need roasted meat to best enjoy.
Perhaps it was better a few years ago. Certainly still drinkable .

Light blackberries aroma as well as hay. A noticeable but enjoyable funk. Moderate acidity, but balanced.

Deep ruby red color, intense plum and stone fruit nose, good minerality, earthy notes and sweet blackberry jam, nice finish with moderate tannins

Despite the stemware, this blew my mind. A clean, pure funk that leads into dark, rich fruit, with a little sea salt, and espresso.

Dark fruit, medium acid, bit of funk. 94 advocate seems extremely high for this.
