Great example of a modern style Maremma wine. Extremely dark fruit and chocolate flavors, cinnamon, polished tannins, fine acidity, rich and deep and without any signs of age. A modern classic for Maremma Merlot. Always liked the 2007 vintage in Maremma. - 93 points

Tuscan wines tasting: med ruby pronounced aromas intensity of dry red cherries, raspberries, dark red plums, oak-vanilla, leather, dark chocolate, bitter finish; developing dry, high acidity, high tannins, high abv (14.5%!), med++ body, pronounced flavours intensity consistent with the aromas; long finish; elegant and balanced, excellent complexity; can drink now - suitable for further 2-4 years of aging. The best Quercegobbe Merlot ever tasted!!!

Melted funk into beautifully balanced red fruit dominated wine. Why can't we make Merlot like this that ages like a champ? This wine would have given Masetto a run for its money tonight! Yes, that good, but you gotta be into old wine and love melted earth and funk. DRINK!
PS_Forgot to mention, lots and lots of fruit and tannins left in this wine. Its very alive!
