What to Expect

The term Super Tuscan has generally been used to refer to a style of Tuscan wine that includes some Bordeaux Varieties, either Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot, and the influence of aging in oak barrels. It more accurately reflects a broad range of wines which may fall outside of the strict DOC rules of Tuscany.

Winemakers Notes

Undurchlässiges Purpur. Betörendes, konzentriertes Bouquet nach schwarzen Kirschen, schwarzen Johannisbeeren, dunkler Schokolade. Weicher Auftakt mit nach und nach intensiver werdender Fruchtaromatik, schwarzer Holunder, Mokka, etwas Baumnuss, elegante Tannine, tolle Komplexität, sehr langes Finale.

Deep purple color, strong nose with notes of mint and spice, notes of mint and spice on the tongue as well as strong minerality and a slight acidity. Will pair nicely with a variety of foods.
