If you ever want to throw a curveball in a blind tasting, through this into the lineup and prepare for mayhem. A delicious Cab Franc forward Super Tuscan that has so many qualities of a wine from Piedmont.

Diffuse. Very hard to pin down, blind. Medium weight. Doesn’t speak of place. Drinkable.

Balanced Tuscan wine with herbs, spice and currant fruit. Easy to like- not as modern as I'd expect.

What a great wine. The Bordeaux grapes all come together so smoothly out of this Italian winery. Fruit is there and the use of cement tanks helps add the minerals.

Really light and lacks flavor. Nice bouquet. Must try again. An older vintage and also when I'm not stuffed up, and everyone else loved it. Babs liked it.

Red & black cherries with herbs & perfumey notes. Hints of spices as well. Red & black fruits, some chalk with minerals. Firm & tannic. Too young & quite tight - grippy.
