Apolloni Soleggio Super Tuscan 08

2007 Vintage Tasting Notes

Soleggio, which means sunshine in Italian, represents the sunshine-ripened grapes which make up this Super Tuscan-style wine.

The blend is 10% Merlot, 53% Sangiovese and 37% Cabernet, all from the Columbia Valley.

Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon provide structure and brightness as Merlot adds balance. This wine opens with a burst of figs and bright cherry while the structure tannins tie the black pepper, toast and coffee notes into a lasting finish. - the winery
