2013 Tenuta Sette Ponti Crognolo
Super Tuscan Italy
$20
Blend: Sangiovese, Merlot
Firm out the gates, but it softens quickly. That’s what she said? Big round fruit. Fresh blackberry, coffee, leather. There is oak but just the right amount. Tannic but calms down quickly. Decant an hour or taste the transition. This is big and amazing for the price. This can sit another 3-5 years, maybe more. Excellent buy. Get some!
