2018 Tenuta Monteti Caburnio Toscana


2018 Tenuta Monteti Caburnio Toscana...$19.99
The nose is metallic, salty and almost fizzy, like a can of Coke on a fishing boat, but a touch of fruit comes from a latent black cherry element. The palate deftly manages to both stick with that umami saltiness and bolster the fruit notes, while acid crackles around tannins that are polished yet dense, like magnets.
Rated 95/100 The Wine Enthusiast
A medium-bodied red with notes of cherries, blackcurrants, dried herbs and baking spices. Fine tannins. Well-balanced with a gentle structure framing the palate towards the vivid finish. Drink or hold.
Rated 91/100 James Suckling
