Villa D' Rosso Toscano


Name: Villa D' Rosso Toscano
Variety: 100% Sangiovese
Region: Montepulciano
Country: Italy
Year: 2012
Price: $6.95

Professional Review: 100% Sangiovense grapes and is a wonderful rendition of a velvety Tuscan red.

My Review: This was an enjoyable red. I got vanilla and a chocolate mocha on the nose with a hints of oak (just the way I like it). On the palate, it was a little light for my taste but that makes it an easy drink. It had a great balance between the acids and the tannins; mid to low tannic levels but not a lot on the finish. Over all, not a bad red. I have to try out more Tuscan reds in the future so I can compare. I had this wine at a tasting without a meal.
