  Yes, a bit closed on the open, but a little oxidation pays rich dividends with this delicious weekday quaff. Macerated maraschino cherry, black cherry kirsch, dry herbs and field flowers on the nose. Full bodied, with ripe flavors of cherry, black cherry, tobacco and vanilla/oak. Unmistakably Tuscan, but richer and more complex than a typical, more acidic (and tannic) chianti. Oak treatment brings this closer to a Maremma-styled blend without the Cab. Pizza was better than this deserved, but it paired nicely just the same.

  Like others who have posted tasting notes, I nearly abandoned this wine when first opened. But it is clearly much better after having an extended opportunity to breathe. Even on Day 2, I found the tannins to be rough and without much redeeming value. The wine does have some very nice fruit tones with dark cherry predominant. Not a wine I would seek out to add to my cellar.
