Recanati
Special Edition Red Blend
2012 Vintage. Not bad. Shiraz dominant blend. Decent nose - plums, chocolate and blackcurrants, hints of leather and spices with a touch of menthol. On the palate, quite seductive - silky tannins and satin on the mid palate, medium acidity and full concentration of blackcurrants and spices with dark chocolate overtones. Alcohol is high and a little hot. The oak is well integrated and the finish is medium plus. Verging on decent.
