Col d’Orcia 2005 Nearco Red (Sant’Antimo)

Country: Italy / Nearco
Variety: Red Blend Tuscany
Winery: Col d’Orcia / Sant’Antimo

The oak note is still a bit pungent here and the wine needs three or four more years of cellaring before reaching harmony. Beyond that, however, this super Tuscan blend offers a solid base of blackberry, spice, leather and tobacco.
