Super Tuscans (Reasonably priced) (Lou's): Ruby in color, clear but a bit flat. This looked like it had some age and I was surprised to see it was a 2012. I don't think this was a proper bottle given that. The nose was dominated by a green streak, call it herbal or even dill with little fruit. Very soft on the palate. Some black cherry fruit but the green carries over. Tart acidity. One of the few wines we agreed upon as it was easily the last place vote.

A good Italian wine with body and a long aftertaste.

Monthly Tuesday group "The Dead Sparrow" #019: Sangiovese, Italy (By PV): In the bouquet cherries, red berries, some herbs, barnyard, bell pepper and forest. On the palate juicy cherries, ok acidity, a touch of sweetness, good oak, mild tannin and a medium length. Nice wine.
