This Tuscan has a nice aroma, light body and integrated notes of light fruit compote, pine and slight vanilla and Earth notes. Tannins are refined and the wine should be decanted in the glass, since the aromas quickly fade away (around 5 min). The finish is medium to long, but not extremely pleasing (not what I would expect from Tuscan wines). The wine has a slight acidic and metallic taste. It is at its best now – I don’t think there is a point to age this wine as it will not evolve, instead it may degenerate. My impression: NOTHING SPECIAL to NICE. This wine would be a nice house wine if it cost under $10 and in that case I would purchase it again. Tasted Apr/10.
