En flaske drukket på hytta til reinsdyr. Drukket samtidig med en flaske av 2009 årgangen. Rød med toner av orange/brun farge. Mer kompleks smak enn 2009 årgange. Ingen merkbare tanniner. Litt røyk i lukt og smak. Mer ettersmak enn 2009 årgangen. Litt grå skogbunn i smak. Hvis jeg må rangere er 2004 årgangen såvidt litt bedr enn 2009 årgange. Ingen store endringer etter en dag i kjøleskap i åpen flaske. (1925 views) | | | Tasted by admid on 1/30/2013 & rated 89 points: Blind tasted

Very good length (2800 views) | | | Tasted by Al Ehrhardt on 10/27/2012: Very nice. Dark cherries, herbs, black tea, just a hint of earthiness. It will hold, but very enjoyable now. (2905 views) | | | Tasted by gfish on 1/15/2012 & rated 89 points: Consistent with previous bottle. Had this 375 with the same dinner as last time. The one downside was that was some heat on the back end. Even so it was still very enjoyable. That happened with the last bottle too though I failed to note it. (2818 views) | | | Tasted by gfish on 1/7/2012 & rated 89 points: Drank from 375ml with pasta, sausage & chicken in a creamy tomato sauce with parmesan reggiano.
Good fruit, nice flavors of kirsch and black cherry, it has developed nicely. Not sure this will get any better than it is now. 2004 was a very good year in Tuscany and the vintage is reflected in this wine. Got it on closeout special and it's an escpecially good Quality/Price ratio. (2808 views) | | | Tasted by bcc725 on 9/26/2010 & rated 90 points: Immediate bouquet of delicate fruit, floral, and hint of earthy, brettiness. Little to any alcohol taint on the nose. In the glass, black raspberry jello type clarity....dark yet translucent. Truly a pretty wine. On the palate, wonderfully elegant mouthfeel and old world fruitiness. Acidity is still raised as this is still probably 2-3 years from peaking. Perfect level of extraction makes the wine deep yet lively. The nose draws one back over and over. With air, and food, the oak becomes more prominent, but not concerning. Did not become more dynamic through the night...but the young beautiful ones rarely do. Gary V. committed infanticide so his score should be disregarded. (2009 views) | | | Tasted by nschmidt on 5/2/2010 & rated 90 points: Drank with Pizza at Ah Pizz. Very enjoyable.

Cherries and forest floor with a slight hint of vanilla on the finish. very long finish (1739 views) | | | Tasted by donald71_1 on 7/24/2009 & rated 90 points: Cherries with long finish, strong vanilla aromes. (1669 views) | | | Tasted by mkaminski on 6/28/2009 & rated 90 points: Ruby in colour. Distinct bouquet of dark cherries, fruity and ripe with notes of violets and pit. Good acidity, nice tannins. Long and pleasant finish. (1748 views) | | | Tasted by jkkane on 2/20/2009: No notes but remember I liked it. (1849 views) | | | Tasted by 97mjr on 12/15/2008: Very tannic. Too much to enjoy early on. but opened slight after about 3 hrs. Licorice, cherry, leather. Nice wine. Would buy more at $20 but hold for 2-3yrs. (2789 views) | | | Tasted by nschmidt on 10/31/2008 & rated 91 points: Drank at Dinner Party and next day at Adrianne's birthday. Wonderful flavors. Smooth. Very good QPR. (1930 views) | | | Tasted by JBVino on 6/13/2008: another solid effort from this producer...young but really good montepuliciano...no formal notes but a wine with good balance, solid acidity, balance of fruit and secondary flavors that developed with air. (1914 views) | | | Tasted by vinole on 5/2/2008 & rated 89 points: A wine true to its terroir, but in a modern way. Bright cherry flavors with earth and leather notes, with some balanced acidity, and some drying tannins on a 25 second finish. Will likely improve over the next couple of years. Nice wine, but nothing extraordinary for its price. (1960 views) | | | Tasted by KeithAkers on 3/8/2008 & rated 91 points: nose: nice rounded and earth driven nose with floral notes, cherry, bits of raspberry, and cummin
taste: very fluid on the palate with floral notes, dark cherry, mixed berries, with spice notes and red currants
overall: an excellent wine. Nice weight and balance with a good 20 second finish (2054 views) | | | Only displaying the 25 most recent notes - click to see all notes for this wine... |

| SangioveseSANGIOVESE: (Pronounced "sahn-joh-vhe-se").
Sangiovese - Italy's claim to fame, the pride of Tuscany. Traditionally made, the wines are full of cherry fruit, earth, and cedar. It produces Chianti (Classico), Rosso di Montalcino, Brunello di Montalcino, Rosso di Montepulciano, Montefalco Rosso, and many others. Sangiovese is also the backbone in many of the acclaimed, modern-styled "Super-Tuscans", where it is blended with Bordeaux varietals (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc) and typically aged in French oak barrels, resulting a wine primed for the international market in the style of a typical California cabernet: oaky, high-alcohol, and a ripe, jammy, fruit-forward profile.[16]
Semi-classic grape grown in the Tuscany region of Italy. Used to produce the Chianti and other Tuscan red wines. Has many clonal versions, two of which seem to predominate. The Sangiovese Grosso clone Brunello variety is used for the dark red, traditionally powerful and slow-maturing "Brunello di Montalcino" wine. The other is the Sangiovese Piccolo, also known under the historical synonym name Sangioveto, used for standard Chianti Classico DOC wines. Old vine derived wine is often used in the better versions, needing several years ageing to reach peak. A third clone, Morellino, is used in a popular wine blend with the same name found in the southern part of the province. Recent efforts in California with clones of this variety are very promising, producing medium-bodied reds with rich cherry or plumlike flavors and aromas. Among the available clonal versions are R6 and R7, derived from the Montalcino region of Italy, having average productivity/ripening and producing small berries on medium size clusters. R10 and R24 are well-recommended. R23, listed as deriving from the Emilia-Romagna region, has good vigor with medium-small clusters with earlier ripening. R102 derives from the Montepulciano region and reported to have average vigor with moderate productivity that results in higher sugar levels and good acidity from medium-small berries on medium-small clusters. Has synonym name of Nielluccio where grown in Corsica.Italy Italian Wines (ItalianMade.com, The Italian Trade Commission) | Italian Wine Guide on the WineDoctorTuscany Tuscany (ItalianMade.com) | TuscanytVino Nobile di Montepulciano Website of the Consorzio del Vino Nobile di Montepulciano
