I bought 3 of these bottles based on the 92 rating (WS?). It's not a very pleasant wine to drink - acidity and fruitiness are (for me) almost overwhelming. Based on this experience, I may skip the Super Tuscan experience.

Both my husband and myself liked this blend. It's a nice smooth daily with an aftertaste that makes you want to have another drink. Good wine for the price.

We opened the bottle and gave the wine some air in a carafe for 2 hours. The aroma was very promising - blackberry, some tobacco and citrus. The taste was not too pleasant though and I found myself almost dreading the finish. Maybe it was the acidity and / or citris flavors that I didn't like, I'm still not sure.
