Vintage Cellar Wine Review: 90 points, James Suckling. "Plenty of blackberry and chocolate character, with hints of plums. Full and very velvety with a bright and fruity finish. Always one of the best values in Tuscany. Screw cap. Delicious now."
My Personal Wine Review: The color was a light red with a smell of cherry. The first thing that stood out for me when I tasted it was how dry it was. Then I got a rubber type taste for the the mid-palate and a sour finish. I did not like this wine and I had to swallow fast to get through this wine.
I did not have food with this wine.
