Tenuta di Arceno PrimaVoce 2005
PrimaVoce, named for the leading voice in an opera, expresses the richness of the Tuscan terroir and the continuing legacy of the Tenuta di Arceno estate. This blend balances the elegance of Merlot with the richness and power of Cabernet Sauvignon.
The nose first exudes cedar, fresh vanilla root and a hint of ginger, followed by aromas of ripe plums and white chocolate. Tannins are soft, silky and balanced and lead to an explosion of candied cherries on the palate. The long lingering finish of forest floor, earth and spice transports you to our Tenuta di Arceno vineyards in autumn, as they reveal and express their terroir.
72% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc, 3% Syrah
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
This Bordeaux-style blend from Tuscany is a great Italian blend from the Tuscany region. Very good buy at $20/bottle.
Cheers!
