Rocca delle Macìe Ser Gioveto 2010

Mostly Sangiovese (80%) with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, the 2010 Ser Gioveto pays homage to the hearty and masculine side of Tuscany's most celebrated native grape. Black cherry and black currant are followed by round tones of chocolate and moist chewing tobacco. There's a fresh point of acidity that refreshes the mouthfeel and adds intensity to the polished finish. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2022. Score - 90. (Monica Larner, erobertparker.com, Aug. 2013)
