2001 Villa di Capezzana Ghiaie della Furba Toscana IGT - Italy, Tuscany, Toscana IGT (10/7/2006) Black red colour with a typical nose of figs, black cherry, some spices and oak. A sweet palate with finely intergrated tannins but a little light in the mouth with a longish finish. I expected more from this wine in this vintage. A little pricey for what's in the bottle(45$cdn) (91 pts.)
2001 Villa di Capezzana Ghiaie della Furba Toscana IGT - Italy, Tuscany, Toscana IGT (5/10/2008) Floral nose with blackberry and a touch of smoke. More lush blackberry and some licorice but framed but good acidity on the palate. Food wine but can stadn on its own. Lots of fresh acidity and a mid-long finish. 92-93. Give it another 3-5 years (92 pts.)
