Tuscany, ItalyHeavy bottle. This is a surprisingly juicy Bolgheri and, indeed, the winery says, "this wine was born from the desire to develop a more immediate product." A blend of 60% cabernet sauvignon, 28% merlot, and 12% cabernet franc, this shows sappy black currant, wild berries, sandalwood, and leather on a frame of dusty tannins and brisk acidity. It's calling for tomato-based pasta dishes to bring it all into balance, but, no doubt, you can enjoy this now. Nice concentration.Tasted: 05 January 2025Tasted by: Prices:

Tuscany, ItalyA BDX blend of 60% cabernet sauvignon, 20% merlot, 17% cabernet franc, and 3% petit verdot from Bolgheri, this wine exudes the richness of dark plum and blackberry mingled with Mediterranean herbs, potpourri, iodine, and earthy, shelly minerality. While warm at 14.5%, as expected from the region, it maintains balance with refreshing acidity and dusty, well-structured tannins, delivering a complex and savoury profile.Tasted: 05 January 2025Tasted by: Prices:
