This was not bad the first night - decent dark fruit, hints of earth; oak didn't jump out at you. Overall pretty nice and mellow. But by later in the evening (and even worse, the second night) it had completely fallen apart. The fruit was gone and all there was left was major oak and tannins with hints of fruit in the background. 89 right out of the bottle; 79 after a few hours open. 84 overall; I would not buy again. .

Had it at an Italian Restaurant in Rio. It was slow to open up, but was fantastic with our ravioli and veal dishes. Would drink it again in a heartbeat

Really nice and pleasant super-tuscan. Nothing extremely impressive but really really nice. Drinking great now but can certainly keep!
