I am proud to introduce an Italian Super Tuscan that I have been looking for for years! This is a wonderful example of a cabernet Franc at 30%!!!!! And a cabernet sauvignon blend. If you want an affordable cab / cab franc - one of my favorites, you absolutely have to try this one. Please note, if I give a wine a perfect score it means I would be happy to serve it to anyone at anytime with my 100% confidence that they will love it and want it and love me for it!!!! OMG. This is awesome! Here we go, this is Brancatelli, Valle Delle Stelle, Toscana 2013! It is only 13.5 %! First, decant for 30 minutes!!!! The color is dark but not opaque! The legs are long, thick, slow, and numerous in number. The bouquet is sweet cherry pie baking in the oven with a spicy aroma and a fig tree with rip figs. The initial palate is of coarse blackberry and dark currant with a mid palate explosion of vanilla and spice. The finish is oaky and dry leaving you wanting a splash of water to wet your palate! I adore this wine! — 9 years ago
Vino italiano, tipico de esta bella ciudad. Rodeado de mi gran familia. — 10 years ago
Per eleganza probabilmente il miglior sauvignon blanc italiano, le note sono quelle tipiche ma anche scaldandosi la parte vegetale rimane aggraziata, fine, in armonia con il frutto e i fiori. Fresco e minerale quanto basta per equilibrare la morbidezza dei suoi 13% e per dare grande beva. Un vino che, nonostante l'aromaticità, non stanca mai — 11 years ago
Cor: rubi intenso / Aroma: mioto agradável, frutado / Sabor: amadeirado leve, parece um misto entre italiano e chileno. Retroolfato e taninos médios. — 11 years ago

2004 Riserva. Very good, full bodied sangiovese, with rustic floral notes. Paired well with la famiglia italiano on Xmas eve. Drink now, suitable for further aging. — 11 years ago

Holy hell. Top of the "KRIEK" charts. 2006 vintage. Quite a bit reminiscent of Flanders Red. Carbonation stays overnight. Pierce the cap carefully, else lose precious juice. — 10 years ago
Sweet and very light with a little fizz. Summer afternoon kinda red. Bought @astor — 11 years ago
