The true Italian "A-list" celebrity among wine varieties. Its reputation goes back several centuries; although the days of round, straw-covered flasks are over. Il Toscano is a blend that is dominated by the sangiovese grape. It has a young ruby color tending to garnet and yields aromas of black cherries and chocolate with aromatic spices and wood. With good acidity and well-integrated tannins, the attack is firm and provides both richness and finesse in the mouth. It truly is a pleasing, aromatic wine.
