My kind of super Tuscan- all native varietals. Natural blackberries & raspberries with both heft & balanced tartness on palate. Fine, grainy tannins. Impressive.

Alicante/Sangiovese/Cilieglio blend. Mostly savory and meaty with some dark cherry, dried spice and a little menthol.

Funky and spicy with bracing acidity and well structured tannins. Cherry flavors from the Sangiovese and darker fruit from Grenache.

Delicious confected tarry nose. Like roasted and stewed black cherry paste with just a hint of menthol and cooking spices. Rich, stewed cherry palate with exquisite sourness and wet brick in balance. Almost Barbera-like in the firm dry bottom end.
