Serraluna Toscana Rosso 2022

Rather cutely dubbed a Baby Super Tuscan, as the wine does include both Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, both of which of are sourced from the Tuscan coast, near Bolgheri, along with the region’s traditional Sangiovese. The wine spent nine months in oak. Winemaker, Stefano di Blasi, worked with Antinori on legendary wines such as Tignanello and Solaia, but has also had extensive experience in Australia. This is red fruit territory. The colour here is a deep garnet, but the nose is redolent with raspberries and cherries. Red fruits everywhere with added notes of tomato bush and mushroom. This is soft and supple with a fine line of acidity and gentle tannins. Hints of strawberries just keep coming back. Terrific drinking now and over the next three to four years.
