Oliviero Toscani is probably best known for the photography in the Benneton advertising campaign a number of years ago. He is however not only a great photographer but also a good winemaker. This OT, being his trademark, is 50% Syrah, 35% Cabernet Franc and 15% Petit Verdot. Similar to his pictures, this is an impactful wine. Being a Supertuscan, it offers lots of black fruit - currants, cherries an plum. Some vanilla, chocolate and a bit of pepper on the finish from the Syrah. Very dark appearance in the glass. A pleasing, refined and intense wine.
