I bought this wine for 7 bucks back in 2012. It was very acidic, coarse and tannic back then. What a surprise tonight! Soft tannins, the fruit is weak, but still present enough to make it a nice experience, view that my expectations were rather low. Pretty good balance. The finish is short but pleasant. I have a couple of 2009 I'm looking forward to drinking later this year.

Ripe blueberries and raspberries, slight smoke. Fine tannins, smooth mouthfeel, plenty of acidity make this an easy drinking, food friendly wine. A very good value. (My memory of this as a younger wine was one of coarse, harsh tannins. It has mellowed.)

Opened up nicely, decent fruit, insufficient structure, tannins and acidity, behind it or score would have been higher

Had with pizza. Went very well with it. Just the right balance of tanins and old worldish earthy flavors. A great wine for the price.

"The 2007 Monte Antico Toscana IGT is another wine that got rave reviews for the previous vintage, but seems to have fallen off. We thought the wine was good but not great. It has a wonderful fruity floral aroma on the nose but is unable to live up to that standard the rest of the way. It has a nice berry flavor but a little too much oak combined with some harsh tannins. The finish is a bit of a …

Not bad. Nice balance. But altogether non-complex. Won't get in the way of food. Not a stand alone bottle.

Medium body. Crisp cherry nose. Raspberry and cherry flavor with a bit of acidity. Not very complex, but good with food. Good value.

Drinks fairly well, although it is a lot more generic than the 2006 vintage which I enjoyed greatly.

Not quite as good as I recall the first bottle being. Perhaps my mouth was in a happier place when the first bottle was consumed. A bit flat and thin. Nose of very little fruit and leather. Taste was mostly bitter oak with a little hint of grape. I think the wine benefited a bunch having a flavorful deep dish pizza to go along with. Not bad but not going on the must buy more list.

Florals(rose/lily) on the nose...great example of floral...agitated brings out the fruit/strawberry. Very easy drink, fruit in the deep.
