Super Tuscan Red Blend. (75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Sangiovese and 5% Cabernet Franc). Full dark berry and cassis aromas with a hint of oaky spice. Deep and dark fruit flavors that are in harmony with the oak. Notes of iron and tobacco. Fine tannins and beautiful texture. Full bodied and round. Nice!

Full bodied, big tannins presents black friut, leather, iron, violets and chocolate. One hour decant...WS gave this a 93... Never sure about
Italian wines.

Big and powerful, with a backbone of acidity. Not quite as fruit forward as California but more so than Bordeaux...a tweener.

2014 vintage, imbibed Aug/2019. Needed decanting ... very closed at first, practically no nose at all. Began to open up after a half hour to 45 minutes. Eventually - good fruit, big body, but tannins well controlled. I had my doubts at first, but ended up really enjoying with a hearty beef dinner.

Fruit bouquet in the nose. Slight leather undertones with a smooth finish. Cab Franc for the win.

Nice balance. Tiny bit of fruit with nice minerality. Good mouth feel.
