DUEMANI CABERNET FRANC - 2005

From Toscana, Italy with 14% alcohol.

TASTING NOTES:

Red-black color. Extremely dry but silky smooth. Nose of sweet blackberries and cassis. On the palate this is a black currant bomb. Tremendous black currant flavors with mocha, plum, baking spices and oak on the mid-palate. The finish gives way to blackberry, fig and prune with some bitter tannins and tart fruit.

SCORE & RECOMMENDATION:

91 PTS
Hardcore Cabernet Franc fans will rejoice over this little gem. Definitely not for everyone but wine geeks will dig this effort. It has enough power and elegance to please.
