Here’s a great little red blend from Antinori, which is a gorgeous expression of the insanely beautiful Tuscany region, but which is made from an interesting mix of Italian and French grapes. Sangiovese leads the way here with small quantities of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah, all grown in Tuscany.
Antinori’s winemakers describe this wine as firm bodied on the palate, supple with velvety tannins and a long, savoury aftertaste.
