Great name,that what sells this wine. The ripe plums and berries are there. The tannins are firms but smooth. Medium acidity, full bodied. Ok but 2007 and 2008 were much better. In rating, not more than 85, beeing generous.

This is a fantastic Super Tuscan at an affordable price. The Sangiovese brings in the cherries, the Cabernet and Merlot bring the blackcurrant, ripe raspberries and boysenberries, a touch of graphite is also subbtle and brings in the terroir and as a bonus in retro-olfaction, a touch of balsamic. What a great wine for that price, a chance for everybody to taste what a Super Tuscan can taste like. By far one of my favourite wine in that price range. 2007 is as great. As Nathalie mentionned a phenomenal value!
