Rich renderings of vanilla and sweet spice make a good first impression and shape a wine that embodies the good cheer and sunny disposition of its native Tuscany. The nose is sweet-smelling, but the wine is drying in the mouth thanks to its firm tannins and slightly sour nature. Long on the finish.
