Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Dark ruby red color. Nose is tertiary and full, refined and delightful, with noble return sensations. Round, full-bodied and with extraordinary structure. Suite of complex and silky tannins, very well-balanced and surprisingly velvety.

Blend: 40% Sangiovese, 20% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Syrah

Professional Ratings

94 Wine Enthusiast
Aromas of ripe bluish-black fruit, crushed mint, iris and dark cooking spices lead the nose on this savory blend of 60% Sangiovese, 20% Syrah and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon. The firm palate doles out fleshy black cherries, ripe blackberries, cinnamon, vanilla, mocha and tobacco. Velvety tannins support the delicious, juicy fruit flavors. Drink through 2019.
92 James Suckling
A chewy and rich wine with blueberry and chocolate, hints of walnuts. Full body, soft tannins and a long and flavorful finish. Better in 2016.
90 Tasting Panel
Dark, smooth and dense with ripe plum, black raspberry and spice; lush, seamless and balanced with depth and juicy style.

Tuscan Red Wine

View all products

Legendary in Italy for its Renaissance art and striking landscape, Tuscany is also home to many of the country’s best red wines. Sangiovese reigns supreme here, as either the single varietal, or a dominant player, in almost all of Tuscany’s best.

A remarkable Chianti, named for its region of origin, will have a bright acidity, supple tannins and plenty of cherry fruit character. From the hills and valleys surrounding the medieval village of Montalcino, come the distinguished and age-worthy wines based on Brunello (Sangiovese). Earning global acclaim since the 1970s, the Tuscan Blends are composed solely of international grape varieties or a mix of international and Sangiovese. The wine called Vine Nobile di Montepulciano, composed of Prognolo Gentile (Sangiovese) and is recognized both for finesse and power.
