I was going to open this next year, but then 2016 dropped, so I had to know what this wine is about.

Aromas of oak, raspberry, cherry, potting soil, leather, barnyard, licorice, black fruit & a hint of perfume.

This was juicy with the above fruits, perfume & earthy taste. Acidity and Tannins are soft with a tiny bit of chalk. Some menthol stays at the back of the throat for a bit but is not distracting. This exudes Tuscany like I was drinking a pure Sangiovese wine. Drink now for the remaining fruit. Oct 2022
