Tommasi Poggio al Tufo Rompicollo 2020
Tuscany, ItalyTommasi has 110 years experience growing cabernet sauvignon in Toscana. The tradition continues here in Maremma, in Toscana's southwest corner. This 60/40 mix of sangiovese / cabernet sauvignon comes off the Pitigliano estate, with soils rich in calcium carbonate tufa. The wine is stainless fermented and aged 1 year in large 65hL Slavonian casks. Ample sticky and blocky tannins frame ripe cherry, sarsaparilla, and perfumed raspberry across the medium bodied palate. Rustic-hewn, this would be best with braised meats / root veg.Tasted: 15 February 2024Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $26.99 | 750ml | BCLS |
