  3/8/2014 - Tenuta Stefan Likes this wine: 91 Points

  Perfect bottle. Served blind.
  
  Quite young colour. Dark, dense, compact.
  
  The bouquet reminds me of Bordeaux or Bordeaux blend from Tuscany.
  Cassis, leather, meat, graphite, oak, dark cherries, cigarr box.
  Feels a bit warm.
  
  Very dry and tough tannins. Very, very dry! Good structure, good acidity, but there is not fruit enough to match the dry tannins.
  But it taste pretty good anyway. Leather, oak, mineral, meat, bacon, cassis and cherries.
  
  A perfect wine to a good steak.
