Spicy at first from the Alicante. Long finish from the cab. An Italian Bordeaux.

Day 2. Tart, dried red fruit, oak, and acid. Better with food, but I was expecting more considering my previous Monteti tastings.

All the lavender/mocha/black cherry/smoke of a solid LB #bordeaux plus the black pepper of #alicante, plus the lip smacking med-short finish of a Tuscan wine. Awesome, I'm really happy with it. Get it instead of bordeaux at the same price ($17ish US). Seriously. #igt #toscana #valuewine
