Az. Agr. Altesino
IGT Toscana
A blend of 80 per cent Sangiovese and Merlot/Cabernet Sauvignon.
Healthy cherry red in the glass.
A nose I love: earthy, leather and smoke.
Medium weight, silky and smooth in the mouth, a good acidic tang, rich cherry fruit, a nice bitter bite, just a hint of spritz on the tongue.
A tangy finish.
Purchased at $18.95 (Canadian).
