(Castello di Ama Vigna l'Apparita) This is the Tuscan Merlot no one talks about. It's a shame because it is the most classic and the most ageworthy. Beautifully pure Merlot fruit on a serious structure with a very very long finish. Really reminds me of a top vintage of old-school St. Emilion like Figeac or Magdelaine but with that wonderful Tuscan acidity. Brilliant wine and better than Masseto and Messorio and a touch cheaper.

Pas mal mieux que la première. S'est développé et est à sa pleine maturité.

dark red purple, blackberry dark cherry fruit on nose, heavy rich soft tannins. Wonderful although past the peak.

Decanted for 3 hours, we were a little disappointed by this wine. The nose was nice enough but in mouth, not much depth and not so pleasant as it was expected. I hope the remaining bottle will be better.

A very good, classy wine. The table loved it. At the beginning of what will likely be a very long life.

Very dark. Big, rich, dense, sweet palate. Balanced with soft tannins. Good structure with moderate tannins in the sweet finish. Needs time
