A Supertuscan
Blend: 50% Sangiovese, 30% Merlot, Syrah 20%
13.5% abv
Toscana, Italy
Appearance: deep purple with a ruby rim.
Aroma: light dark cherries with a little herbal note
Flavors: nice fruit forward notes of dark cherry, blueberry, black raspberry jam. There is a soft mossy earth note and a hint of herbs. Now and then I get a dusting of a cinnamon feel.
As the wine opens up the earthy note changes from mossy to an easygoing rich soil feel.
Mouthfeel: a smooth leather texture with lingering dark berries and dark fruits on the palate. A light dry feel on the aftertaste.
My Strength Rating: 4 - tannins and acidity are low and the flavors are tasty.
To the Point: a tasty wine to sit back and relax with friends or enemies. This should make you friends then.
