Casali di Bibbiano, Argante Rosso Toscana IGT 2010, Tuscany, Italy

Tasting Note: A plush cabernet sauvignon and merlot red blend.

Deep-intensity ruby in color, this wine has an aromatic, medium-plus-intensity nose of blackberry, rhubarb, dried mushroom, black currant, forest floor and cassis.

On the palate the dry, full-bodied red blend has medium-plus-intensity, black-fruit flavors suggested on the nose supported by medium acidity and ripe, velvety, medium-plus tannin ultimately completing with a medium-plus finish.

Complexity runs throughout the length of the taste.

A solid Italian red blend.

Bottle Note: 70% Cabernet, 30% Merlot.
