Tuscany, Italy
A bold, juicy wine, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Legit offers plenty of immediacy. Dried herbs, tobacco and blackberry give this mid-weight Cabernet a good deal of aromatic complexity to play off its mid-weight structure. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, September 2021)

On the nose, this is blackberry bush at the peak of summer... On the palate, those blackberries are there with a big bucket worth of fresh-picked raspberries... The bramble's present on the palate too, but the wine doesn't present as under-ripe at all. While probably best described as medium bodied, the freshness of the fruit is what's dominant here... Licorice all-sorts are a playful bonus... Medium acidity here which tied together our roast pork dinner with lardons... The finish is medium and memories of raspberry... A great Sunday dinner wine... Love it.

World wine. Clean Cab. Mod tannins. Would not upset my mother. No terroir.
