2006 Melini Chianti Classico Riserva Vigneti La Selvanella

This strikes me as pretty flabby....overcooked fruit tones with a touch of earth and leather... lacking delineation and a hollow finish....very little acid and tannin to frame this...falls apart on the back end.

2007 Tua Rita Perlato del Bosco Toscana IGT

Very extracted aromatics of blueberry, mineral, purple florals, dark chocolate, with a touch too much alcohol. Ripe round tannins medium plus alcohol med acid and lots of beautiful minerality and tobacco with plummy licourice fruits and an incredible amount of extraction. I really enjoy the ripeness which seems very aggressive and the minerality which seems to focus through that like a laser.

Plush and intense aromatics of cinnamon, grilled plums, licourice, menthol and a touch of asphalt. In the mouth there is a feel of menthol which may be the alcohol, which is a touch assertive. Alongside this there is also plenty of dark black fruits. Sweeet spices and char...lingering notes of blueberry round out the finish...although this wine is a touch hot it has incredible depth of fruit for its category. An assertive effort that i applaud.
