Ceppaiano Violetta Toscana Sangiovese Cabernet Sauvignon

No formal notes taken. Drank as part of a birthday dinner for my wife. Surprisingly youthful from magnum. Typical super tuscan, black cherry, earth, and some tar. Nice.

Vibrant right wine that needed a good two hours to open up into a beautiful pallet of red fruits dusted with minerals and soft tannins.

Here’s the deal on this one - have a half a glass Close the bottle and then open it day 2. It’s at that moment it’s from 89-91.5. Soft, supple, vanilla, cocoa and love. All at $12.99 per from WTSO. Had a 3L on Xmas. Couldn’t even serve it. Day 2, the 26th, four people hammered it. Gotta be patient on this one.

Ruby robe with moderate legs. Nose of oak, chocolate, plumbs and honey. A strong wine with powerful, but not overpowering, tannins, balanced with tastes of plumbs, chocolate and wood. Medium, dry finish. Excellent with strong read meat or duck.

Medium body, dark purple color, smooth, black cherry and a hint of leather. Nice, well aged Super Tuscan, and at the price from #wtso it's a stellar value.

This well balanced Sangiovese-Cabernet blend with a ruby red color is vibrant and smooth. With a medium bodied and bold fruity flavor it is a perfect match with an Italian dinner to enjoy from beginning to end.

Mash of sun-dried tomatoes, roasted tomatoes, and black cherries. Tingling dried herbs, potpourri, aged balsamic, and charred wood flow into a striking acidity and structured tannins. Cabernet gives the Sangiovese a dark side. Super intriguing, savory, and delicious. Balanced and open. Drink now. Cheers! #100thwine
