Country: Italy / Essenzia di Caiarossa
Variety: Red Blend Tuscany
Winery: Caiarossa / Toscana
A blend of Syrah and Alicante, this opens with aromas of underbrush, toasted wood, espresso and a whiff of exotic spice. On the palate, the fruit is almost completely dried up, leaving prune and oak-driven sensations of coffee and licorice alongside drying tannins.
