  Praelum TITs - Tuscany (Praelum Wine Bistro): Medium ruby. Aromas of tomato leaf, meat stew and some cloves. Softened tannins, but a good flavour intensity of mostly soy and stew, then cherry, fern leaf, and purple flowers. Gets quite peaty towards the back

  Somewhat flat and without character. Ready to drink now.

  Open nose with blueberry, blackcurrant and the smell of an overheated model railway train motor! Medium+ well rounded tannins and strong, clean acidity. On the palate drak forrest fruits mix with iron and blood in an interesting mixture. Long, clean and mouthdrying aftertaste. A brilliant, complex wine still with many years to live in the bottle.

  Free-flow Wagyu Beef Dinner and drinks (EN Dining Bar + Pine Close): From 1 day ago under vacuum seal. Tasted blind.
  Appearance is clear, deep intensity, ruby colour. Legs.
  Nose is clean, medium intensity, with aromas of dried red fruit, blackberry, and herbs. Developed.
  On the palate, dry, high acidity, medium+ alcohol, high tannins, medium+ body. Medium flavour intensity, with flavours of blackberry, blackcurrant, blueberry, some dried red fruit and herbs. Medium+ finish.
  I guessed a Cabernet dominant blend. Pretty indistinct and hard to place the region.
  Acceptable quality SuperTuscan. No Sangiovese. 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc. Food wine. Can drink now, unlikely to improve much with further ageing.
