Toscana

Fresh acidities lift the raspberry and smoky tobacco leaf aromatics. Sour cherry notes on the palate, with firm tannins that build slowly and delicately, giving plenty of confidence that it will age well over the next few years. First released through the Place in March 2021, making this my second tasting.

Inside Bordeaux

Plump rich colour, smoked vanilla bean, sandalwood, red cherry and damson on the opening notes, a crowd pleaser taking us under the Tuscan sun. 92ha, Alessandro Marini director and winemaker.

Dark ruby in colour, opening with grilled oak, ripe raspberry and sour cherry fruits, fresh acitidies that bring Tuscan typicity, enjoyable and balanced, modern style. Aged in a mix of new and neutral oak. Nicolo d'Afflitto director, Alessandro Marini winemaker.

Hard to find a better value Tuscan, this is true crowd pleaser, expertly handled to offer maximum pleasure. Savoury edged, raspberry and red fruits, liqourice, smoked and grilled oak notes. This feels fresher and with more momentum than the past few vintages. Aged for 12 months in barrel, mix of new and neutral barrels. 88ha estate, winemaker Alessandro Marini.
