Il Fauno di Arcanum 2012

Tuscany, ItalyThe blend in 2012 is 48/27/22/3/ merlot, cabernet franc, cabernet sauvignon, petit verdot. The nose is a peculiar mix of floral/meaty (reductive?) notes with bits of black fruit and coffee aromas. The attack is similar with resiny, licorice, black fruit and bitter espresso notes. Not terribly Tuscan and it needs another three to five years to settle down. Best mushroom or meaty pasta dishes.Tasted: 09 March 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
