2002 Vigna di Gragnano Poggio de Paoli Merlot Toscana IGT

31st May 2003 Colline Lucchesi & Montecarlo Table Red

[Barrel sample]
Deep red/purple.
Slightly dumb, but some spice, cream and forest fruits - inviting.
Medium bodied with creamy fruit blending nicely with tangy charcoal and bitter almond flavours. Lovely texture and a good dry finish.
Not yet fully knit, but should be good.
