San Felice, Toscana IGT (Tuscany, Italy) “Vigorello” 2021 ($78, Total Beverage Solution)

San Felice, a top Tuscan producer, incorporates Pugnitello, a traditional Tuscan grape, into their Super Tuscan blend with Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Petit Verdot. Wonderfully aromatic, rich dark fruit and minerals flavors emerge from this bold wine. Pleasing and invigorating acidity provides an ideal counterbalance to its rich profile. Glossy tannins impart a suave texture that permits current enjoyment. Beneath all the youthful exuberance a thrilling complexity awaits to emerge with five to 10 years of bottle age.
