Beautiful violet color. Subtle earthy aroma. Medium acidity. Dry. Floral. Mineral. Medium body. Light tannin. But this wine is not all that light. There is a certain body to it coming from Tuscany, I suppose. Elegant wine, it is. — 10 years ago

dark & red fruit, underbrush, liquorice, tobacco, coffee, cocoa, gr almond. BOMBA!!! — 7 years ago
Was pretty unimpressed upon opening, but really came to life in an unexpected way the next day. Fresh leather, spiced cherry, star anise, sweet dirt, cedarwood, truffle, black licorice candy. Rich and long on the palate, with a bit of jamminess- from the Syrah undoubtedly. — 9 years ago

Excellent well made Sangiovese. Dark fruit and a hint of leather on the nose. Pleasant fruit with a hint of aged fruit on the palate. Nice mouth drying high tannins and typical high acidity. A hint of delicious sour sweetness that reminds me of Chateau Musar. Blend: 85% Sangiovese and 15% Merlot. 13% abv — 9 years ago
Exceptionally rich yet nervy, Lohsa 2013 Morellino di Scansano is certainly cut along the local Sangiovese lines of this DOCG but this is cut of a finer woolen and fragrant cloth true to the Poliziano house whose handsome strength comes through in savory spiced cherries and al dente tannins. A wine to serve with wild boar or crispy duck. — 9 years ago
