This weekend we opened the 2018 Brancaia Ilatraia Rosso Super Tuscan Cabernet Sauvignon Blend. A blend of 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Petit Verdot and 20% Cabernet Franc.

On the nose is black cherry, blackberry, black currant, chocolate, tobacco, licorice, herbaceous notes, mint and dusty dark earth.

On the palate is black cherry, blackberry, black plum, black currant, balsamic, green olive, sage, green bell pepper, spice and earth.

This is a full bodied wine with a fresh vibrant mouthfeel medium + acidity and medium + firm mouthcoating grippy tannins that leads me into a long black fruit rich dark earth finish. A beautiful wine right for any occasion. Enjoy your week ahead and stay safe and healthy. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷
