Gini Toscana 2000 wine review by (PB)

On a stop by to Boston on the way to LA (NW) served up that Tuscan red.
Garnet hue is showing a touch of age at the rim and yields sweet fruit bouquet with earthy tones and taffy. (That’s right I said taffy–or caramel whether you prefer!)

The palate is medium to full bodied with good acidity with flavors trying to break out. It should open with a few minutes.

A little rustic with mushroom and fruit

in a decent balance and finish that is okay. that wine is a blend of Sangiovese and Merlot. Reference price is $30. that was served by (NW) after the Ricasole Formulae (see previous post) which has a reference price about a third of that wine. I liked the Formulae better! To each his own. Raise a glass.
