Product Notes

Querciabella Turpino Toscana is a superb Italian wine that showcases sublime elegance and complexity. This blend of Cabernet Franc, Syrah, and Merlot has a vibrant, deep ruby colour in the glass. With enticing aromas of blackberry, cedar, and subtle spices, it bewitches the senses before the first sip. On the palate, it delivers a harmonious balance of ripe fruit flavours, impeccably integrated tannins, and a smooth, savoury finish. This full-bodied yet soft and velvety wine from Querciabella captures the true essence of its Tuscan terroir, presenting an unforgettable tasting experience steeped in the artistry of fine Italian winemaking.

Tasting Notes

Lustrous deep crimson. Deep red- and dark-fruit nose with hints of dark spice. Savoury rather than sweet or ripe on the nose, notwithstanding this is from the hot and torrid 2017 vintage. Hint of earth and dried moss. Lush red and dark fruit with a muscular structure that is completely integrated with the fruit. Hedonistic, long, and with loads of (international) appeal. Great fun to drink.
