April 13, 2011 - 90% Morellino a clone of Sangiovese and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from the Poggio La Mozza area of Scansano. Fermentation is done in cement tanks then the wine is aged for 12 months in French oak with about 20% new. Clear medium purple core with medium + legs. Clean nose, medium + intensity, developing aromas of cassis, blackcurrant, sweet spice, black berry pie and dried flowers. Dry, medium acidity, ripe fine grained medium tannins, 14.5% abv, medium body, medium + flavor intensity of black berry jam, spicy dark fruit, dried herbs, medium + length. A good quality premium red which is new world in style, a little too much fruit and alcohol for me, lacking earthiness and distinction. Very well made but missing something. About $38-$40 US retail.
