Ambra
Santa Cristina in Pilli Carmignano Sangiovese Blend
Carmignano, Prato, Tuscany, Italy
Right after opening it has a strong cigar-tobacco smell and flavor. After it opens there are notes of cherry, dark chocolate, still mild tobacco, but also mint and pepper. Good structure, decent acidity and tannins. A nice wine after 30 minutes.

Another terrific $15 Tuscan red. Is there a better place to find value reds?

Surprisingly smooth structure starts off, blending the grape varietals well to a smooth elegant finish. With spicy southern Italian fare this wine holds up strong. 2011 vintage.
