Nota Bene Abbinare 03
What an interesting and satisfying wine. The nose is full of big, black cherry fruit, hints of caraway and forest, and a hint of oak tannin. The flavors are of black raspberry, licorice, tobacco leaf, and typical Super Tuscan style fruit. there's cocoa and bittersweet chocolate on the finish, with a hint of toast and smoke.
An unusual combination of grapes makes for a lovely food wine. A fine grained dry finish with a hint of spice is refreshiing rather than cloying. Calls for a big grilled meat dinner like Osso Buco. - jy A most unusual blend, so satisfying and "something different". An Avalon Wine Club January Selection.
