I made a brief but profitable visit to Bodegas Pintia with Pablo Alvarez and winemaker Xavier Ausas

Soldera (Case Basse), Toscana Sangiovese other_regions_italy I made a brief butThe product of a cool, rainy season, the 2014 Toscana Sangiovese remains bright and nervy in feel. White pepper, rose petals, mint, herbs and blood orange race across the palate. The 2014 is a shy wine, one with fruit very much in the background. It will be interesting to see how this ages. Today, the 2014 on the austere side.
