Well, i’m a sucker for Cabernet franc so of course this one peaks my interest and doesn’t disappoint. Great Bordeaux blend with similar tasting profiles: cigar box, cherry, cassis are the most prominent. I like that Verruzzo means ‘small wild boar’ due to the wildlife that roams the land around the vineyards. I bet this would pair well with some boar.

Bam!!! Budget Toscana that delivers the goods. Cherry, coffee, leather, spices. Touch of oak but there is enough fruit to wear it.

Solid lil Super Tuscan: inky dark dense, thick w/dark berry fruit, liqueur like expression, cassis, forest floor, initially funky but it blew off to a more focused polished Left Bank offering. Well knit, seamless thru finish
