This is a really great wine, still a a baby. This is the fist in a velvet glove wine from Ama!

The nose of this wine and the palate of this wine are mismatched. The nose is smoky fig, oak heavy with some leather characteristics. The palate of this wine is black and purple primarily, very sweet, unlike the more aged nose. 100% merlot from Toscana, opened by Joe. Finishes soft. Good structure. I believe that this one is going to hold on for the next 10 years easily. Be in no rush! Nice structure.

Very good although pricey old Tuscan merlot. Probably a bit past prime, and not at all what I was looking for. Nice setting with only a few tables, but in terms of food this is the WORST Michelin one star restaurant I have ever encountered. Wine list is also quite limited. Avoid this restaurant at all cost. Michelin really needs to get their act together, as this place is a complete abomination.
