Tuscany, ItalyDark cherry colour, slight brick edge. Waxy, tobacco, peppery, gamey, smoky, licorice root, black cherry, black tea aromas with a touch of cardamom and Band-Aid. Rich, round, supple and full but a bit warm with some elegance. Very good black cherry, plum, coffee, tobacco, licorice, ash, tea leaf, peppery, vanilla and menthol flavours with a meaty finish. A bit tannic yet, has good finesse. Best now and over the next 4 years.Tasted: 14 November 2007Tasted by: Stuart TobePrices:| IT | $40.00 | 750ml | Retail (Euros) |
