Very nice wine. Cherry on nose and palate. Well balanced. Floral note towards end. Great wine for the price and will purchase again.

Really solid for $14 close-out and worth closer to $20+. Very good+. Fully ripe, but not getting warmth of the vintage. Just good food wine drinking. It's got a comforting feel, but not enveloping, still enough bright notes and acid to keep it moving. 14% abv, I'd have guessed a bit under. A solid super Tuscan and a really nice price even fully priced IMO. I guessed Cabernet Sauvignon + Sangiovese + a bit of something deeper and darker. I …

A very enjoyable wine at this price point. Has enough acidity and brightness to make it an excellent food wine, and enough tannic structure to keep it from being a flabby fruit bomb that won't stand up as you finish the bottle after the meal.. The fruit is a mix of cherry, raspberry, and black cherry with a nice floral nose.

Dark ruby with medium legs. Cherry and plum on the nose. Smooth, medium mouth feel. Cherry, blackberry, and spice on the palate. Medium slightly spicy finish.

Le vin émane un parfum d'épices douces, de fruits noirs séchés, de fleurs séchés. La bouche est parfaitement équilibré, c'est bien structuré et tout est à sa place. Le boisé est délicat et bien intégré à ce stade, contrairement à ma première bouteille bu il y a quelques années. Très belle bouteille.

Decent wine, but perhaps not the type that will become my favorite. Or perhaps I just need to wait for warmer spring days to enjoy its acidity and slight tartness, which are quite typical of Tuscan wines. Medium bodied, more Sangiovese than anything else in taste, notes of pepper, black tea, baking spice and yellow grapefruit rather than rich in fruit, berries or figs, if that makes sense ( always so difficult to describe ). I did enjoy it though, …

Le vin dégage de jolies arômes de mûres et autres fruits noirs, de noyau de cerise, de réglisse, avec un léger boisé légèrement toasté. La bouche est corpulente, souple, presque joufflue et à l'acidité moyenne. Légère chauffe en finale mais rien de dérangeant. Un bon Toscane pour la table dans l'ensemble.

Decanted briefly. Nose of olive, coffee, some floral/menthol brett. Palate is tart red fruit, menthol/brett, hint of garrigue. M body, M to M- tannin, M+ acid. Decent length to the finish with Mediterranean herb. Very fresh style, food friendly but enjoyable on its own too. Apparently the blend is Cab heavy but I would’ve guessed Sangiovese/Merlot. Solid value. Ready now, could probably handle a few more years. 7.3/10 (In case my mention of brett scares anyone, I should say it’s …

The estate can be traced back to 1680. Everything is estate fruit, including all the French varietals. Sweet smelling fruit on the nose, the baby super Tuscan, first created in 2002 and made first by Giachimo Tachis, whose first wine with them was Solengo. Rather delicious smelling nose of mixed fruit. Palate has good stiffness to it as well. Shows the sangiovese in the mix. Maybe 65% Cabernet, 15% Sangiovese, then the rest Merlot and Syrah, although they don't release …

Bunch of Samples : Bright ruby color. Nose shows tart raspberries, red currant jam, spicy strawberries, with notes of tobacco leaf, rose petal and spicy pepper. On the palate, this is a medium/full-bodied wine with quite smooth tannins and moderate acidity. Flavors of tart red currant and raspberry mix with black pepper, spicy tobacco and scorched earth. Simple, fun, pleasant. Cabernet, Sangiovese, Merlot and Syrah.

Russk. I like the medium weight and balance of the wine, and the earthy note. But it it finishes bitter, probably because of the Syrah. 89+.

Last of four bottles, the other three of which I hated. This one is different. Nose has a prominent anise component, with black plum and cassis behind, all vaguely smoky. Palate follows, surprisingly not super tannic, just a port wine chewiness. I found the other three bottles disturbingly sweet; this one is quite dry though there is still sweetness on the nose. This is why wine is fun; also why you should take notes! I still don't love this wine, …

Another bottle from the same purchase as my previous review. Yes, the prune nose and sweetness seem to be intended. This bottle is less off-putting than the last. But this is not what wine is supposed to be - can't drink with food. Not flawed, but not good. Avoid.
2011 vintage
Taster #9314 · Feb 13, 2017
Possibly flawed? Surprising given that there's no cork to go bad - this is a screw-top. Nose and palate dominated by prune and plum, sweet and heavy. No off flavors, but doesn't taste in any way Italian. Not undrinkable, but no good with food, too heavy for anything but sipping. Will see if sitting overnight does it any good. Disappointing.

This was a bit closed and more overtly Italianate on day one. On days two and three, a nose of hard candy and baking spice, mixed with the ripe fruit flavors, developed more strongly, as did the palate, which became more full-bodied and luscious, without being especially oaky. It's balanced by a sprightly, almost grapefruity acidity. Most Tuscan wines I drink are traditional Chiantis, and this is more of a crowd-pleaser, but also intriguing (grapefruit acidity? hard candy?). The sort …

Wonderful wine for the price. Very pleasant blend of grapes. Good color, good fruit, good depth. Goes well with any pasta dish. This wine has never disappointed me. Probably could use another six months of aging but no more. Don't expect a Monsanto Il Piogionne or a Brunello but a very pleasant wine at an affordable price. GUS 513

This Super Tuscan is a blend of 40% Cabernet, 20% Merlot, 20% Syrah and 20% Sangiovese. The producer's web site says "Non Confunditur’ is a Latin term that means unique, unmistakable." Although it really wasn't 'unmistakable', the wine is very nice, and well worth it's price. It is also the producer, Argiano’s,"baby Super Tuscan" It has a very deep, dark purple color and an aromatic nose of perfume, red berries, and cherries. The wine tastes New World in character, very …

I'm in the 86-87 range on this bottle. It's a teeth stainer for sure. A pretty decent middle-of-the-week food wine as stated by an earlier reviewer. I don't know if I'd take up valuable cellar space to let this (screw-top) wine lay down a while. I certainly don't feel like I was gypped on this wine.
