ABOUT THE WINE

AWARDS:             Wine Advocate Rating: 90

The 2006 Tuttorosso Super Tuscan Style blend salutes the maverick winemakers who broke with tradition to create a new category of wines from Tuscany.

Close your eyes when you put your nose to the glass. Picture yourself walking through the early fall woods of Tuscany; it has rained the day before and there is a hint of white truffles in the air.   Wild ripe raspberries line the pathway as the perfume of late season flowers reach your nose.  Take a sip and imagine yourself seated in your favorite candle-lit Italian restaurant. The zesty finish makes it the perfect combination for tomato based dishes.  Now, open your eyes to TUTTOROSSO.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Deep crimson-colored, the nose offers up smoke, tobacco, allspice, cherry and red licorice.  Medium-bodied, smooth textured and easy-going
this savory, sweetly-fruited wine will deliver pleasure over the next 8 years.
