Cavalli
Tenuta Degli Dei Toscana Super Tuscan Blend
Tuscany, Italy
This is a Super Tuscan, Bordeaux varietal blend from Roberto Cavalli's family. Despite its 8-year age, it shows younger. The color is still solidly a deep purple-red. Blackberry and cherry on the nose, follows as sour cherry and cola on the palate. Medium body, medium plus acidity, somewhat bitter tannins and medium finish. I do not get any tertiary notes, and the experience is not well integrated or round. Not sure what I'm missing. This is one of the only times I've disagreed with @Antonio Galloni. So don't take my word for it. Still good, not very good.
