2011 Querciabella Mongrana Maremma, Tuscany AG--89

Antonio Galloni's Notes: 89 Points
The 2011 Mongrana is an unusually floral, delicate wine from Querciabella's estate vineyards in Maremma, where the wines are usually much more powerful. Dark red cherries, spices, licorice, tobacco and menthol are woven together nicely. This attractive, mid-weight red is best suited for drinking over the next few years. Best of all, it is a terrific value. The Mongrana was aged in cement and neutral oak.
