2005 Monte Antico Toscana IGT


2005 Monte Antico Toscana IGT - $11 Italy. This wine is a blend of mostly Sangiovese (about 75%), Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot. On the nose you get big cherries, and a bit of pepper and strawberries. On the palate this wine is dry with soft tannins that melt away, it's a bit round. I think this wine is very approachable, a lot of different palates will like this wine. As with just about all Italian wine it is better when consumed with food, pick your pleasure because this wine will go with many different foods. Good quality for the price.
