2007 vintage, stellar year in Tuscany. It shows in almost every 07 I've had. Clear, bright, ruby in color with a garnet rim, medium concentration, medium viscosity. Nose: sound, med- intensity, vinous, over ripe black cherry and raspberry overtones with a touch of strawberry. White and red roses, barnyard and worn leather. A touch of cedar and brown sugar. Palate: dry, medium bodied, tart black cherry and blackberry fruit, leather and turned earth, wet slate, dried oregano and cedar spicy oak. Medium tannins, medium alcohol, med+ acid with a medium- finish. Medium complexity.
