Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, November 16, 2004 - Decanted for 30 minutes prior to serving.

Ruby red in color, with edges of pink (sorry... no other way to discribe it). Notes of cranberry, cherry and mushroom, with a hint of oak. On the palate it is hard to believe this is 100% Sangiovese. It is medium to full bodied with good dried cherry flavor, and hints of the mushroom coming through. Very nice tannins, although I think a little time in the bottle will make them very lush. Good acidity, but a disappointingly short finish. If this finish were better, I'd put this around 91. However, with the short finish, I'd have to say 87-89 points. Still, for $13... we've found the table Tuscan wine we've been looking for since our honeymoon.
