Wine Card
Made on the Tuscan coast around Bolgheri, one of the most trending vineyards of Italy, this Bordeaux-like red blend is a remarkable opportunity to drink smarter. Its fragrant aroma of dark berries, balanced by a long lasting sapid taste, reveals the fruit ripeness of a warm vintage. Body is supple and full with a pretty smooth mouthfeel. Here’s a wine with an elegant style, although more flavorful than graceful.
