  This is more like it. A great showing for the Apparita. Incidentally, I prefer my Appaita young and this one is spot on.

  Braunrote Farbe / In der Nase reife Pflaume, Milchschokolade, süße Würze, Zeder und Tonnen von Leder / Im Mund trocken, aber mit Fruchtsüße. Dazu voller Körper mit wenig+ Säure. Samtig eingebundenes Tannin ohne jegliche Ecken und Kanten
  
  Der Wein ist ein komplexer Genuss - hat den Höhepunkt für mich aber bereits überschritten, da er etwas breit ist und zu wenig tänzelnd-lebhaft wirkt.

  Drank in London
  Nice but getting slightly tired. Has a lovely mouthfeel but has lost some of its shine.

  The Purchase Group 2011-01 (@ PZ): Although mature, still ripe fruits and juicy. Firm amount of bitterness in the finish.

  This is still youthful. Nose and palate are very typically tuscan in spite of being merlot. Oak and tannins quite noticeable suggesting more time needed. Fruit is buried but notes of dark cherry emerge. Satisfying without intrigue. 50+8+8+17+7=90+
