This label has a story. In short: I go out for a night on the town with my ex-wife and come home to my former roommate's neighbor polishing off this wine like it was Yellow Tail.!?!?! Rough night! $150 / 95pts

I bought a case of this the first year I became a broker, finally opened it and pleasantly surprised. Bing cherries intermixed with tarmac, sage, pencil lead, baking spices. Super long finish.

From one of the largest estate in Tuscany, the blend of Syrah and Petit Verdot is rich and savory. The nose bursts with ripe plum, blueberry, cedar, black pepper, incense, and hint of game. Full body. Dense and velvety. Ripe elegant tannins lead to an enduring finish.

50% Syrah 25% PVerdot 25% Other grapes.
Dark core, dark fruit. Still fresh and youthful. Peppery, cedary tannines, hint of new world sweetness, lovely veins of Italian acidity.
Wonderful wine.
