July 9, 2013 - soft and muted tannins... more new world than classic Toscana ... a good long finish

April 25, 2010 - Definitely needed decanting. Very closed off and harsh upon first opening. After about 60 minutes of opening-up became a very rich and complex wine. Enjoyable, nice on the palate, no harshness. Strong fruit with spice and earth (not jammy).
