Bottle of Monte Antico 2007 |
Tuscan Blend 2007
Blend: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon + Sangiovese
Tuscany, Italy
13.95 USD
Plenty of blackberry and chocolate character, with hints of plums. Full and very velvety with a bright and fruity finish. Always one of the best values in Tuscany. Screw cap. Delicious now. (vintage cellar)
This wine had a very distinct smell to it. It was a very earthy smell to it. It wasn't dirt or mold or moss, it was just earth. It had a nice component of some sort of red fruit. I guess it was plums but I want able to pick that out myself. There was also a hint of a smooth vanilla as well. As for the taste. It was sweet with a bit of acid to it. With no heat and smooth all the way through it left a surprisingly dry aftertaste. All in all I would really like to get a bottle of this to have again.
