Country: Italy / 642° Il Canapone
Variety: Red Blend Tuscany
Winery: Tenuta La Badiola / Maremma Toscana
A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Montepulciano, Sangiovese and a drop of Petit Verdot, this has aromas of pressed blue flower, dark-skinned berry and toast. The firm, straightforward palate offers black currant, clove and a hint of tobacco. Fine-grained tannins proved the frame work.
