Oct 16th, 2021I generally enjoy a super Tuscan, but this one was a bit too "dirty" for my tastes. The nose displays nice black and purple fruits with a touch of vegetation, pencil box and wet clay. The palette, unfortunately, starts and finishes dirty (aka too earthy). You get rich black fruits in the middle, but they're a bit fleeting. Not terrible, but not really what I had hoped for either.
