Pietramerana
Governo all'uso Toscano Super Tuscan Blend
Tuscany, Italy
Drank 7/14/22
A Tuscan IGT wine. No info on the blend or vintage here, but the back of thr label suggests that a percentage of dried grapes are used. Maybe Sangiovese and valpolicella. I'm guessing a bit of merlot is present as well.
Nose is simple with red cherry and a bit of tomato leaf. Sweet red cherry on the palate. Medium tannins lend a bit of support, but this fades quickly. I'm generally not a fan of the apassimento style, and this comes out a bit sweet and simple for me as well. The simplicity would make it pair well with a wide variety of foods. I originally rated this a bit higher, but after eating dinner and being unable to finish a glass I dropped my score. Beware if you do not like sweet or fruity wines.
3/22/3/3/2 +50 = 83 pts.
