Wine Review: This opaque and midnight purple colored Cabernet based blend from Antinori opens with a mild black currant and black cherry bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with integrated medium acidity. The mouthfeel is nicely balanced, smooth, and seamless. The flavor profile is a milk chocolate and mild black currant blend with notes of black cherry and stone dust. I also detected hints of oak and a touch of black licorice. The finish is quite dry and its flavors and dusty fine tannins drift away nicely. I would pair this food friendly with a filet mignon. This wine was liked by all those that tried it. It did not last long. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Il Bruciato 2022 is intensely ruby red in color. Dominant aromas on the nose include small ripe red fruit accompanied by notes of sweet spices and light hints of mint and tobacco. The palate has excellent structure, is remarkably mouth filling with a pleasant fruity aftertaste that makes it pleasantly easy to drink and closes with a lingering finish.
