Poggio al Casone
Castellani La Cattura Toscana Teroldego Syrah
Tuscany, Italy
This opens up with loganberry Aromas and the smell of dry dirt. On the palate though you get a lot of fruit, this is a chewy wine. Very fruit forward. So much so that it does linger. This drinks like a very young wine even after a good bit of decanting time.

continuing in the vein of unusual Italian wines, we thoroughly enjoyed this 10 yr old Teroldego from Tuscany of all places: pouring a deep rich ruby, partially opaque with copious quantities of red fruit on the nose, some dark berried fruit as well, licorice, dirt & soil, peppery goodness some dried herbs and so on. complex and engaging, med bodied on palate, more fruit & spice, fleshy mild tannins and smooth finish - other than color, not showing its age.

Teroldego and Syrah Blend. Big fruit flavors but still reasonably dry. Lots of dark cherry and plum notes. Smooth tannins and easy to drink. Good QPR
