Deep Ruby with aromas of dark fruits. The palate reveals blackberry, blueberry and currants with notes of tobacco and cacao with some pepper spice. The wine is reasonably balanced with acidity and tannins, a bit grainy. The finish shows some smoke and is medium in length.

Classic Bolgheri terroir comes through in the bright, fresh, floral and savory side of Cabernet Franc, while deeper, red and blackberry fruit notes, mocha and spice are brought on by the Cabernet Sauvignon.
70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Cabernet Franc from Bolgheri on the Tuscan coast. Aged for 1 year in new and used French oak.
The medium to full-bodied palate is racy, with vivid, juicy blackberry and bing cherry, excellent acidity and firm, but fine, tannin. A long finish extends the fruit and spice on the palate. This is a little more accessible and a touch pusher than the more serious Tam.

Deep ruby color with dark bramble fruit and pepper notes on the finish. Full bodied with light-medium tannins and a medium finish. Good value Bolgheri red.

Either the bottle I bought went bad or this wine is made from rubbing alcohol.
