Campo al Mare 2008 Baia al Vento (Bolgheri Superiore)

Country: Italy / Baia al Vento
Variety: Red Blend Tuscany
Winery: Campo al Mare / Bolgheri Superiore

Almost too much of a good thing, this inky blend of Merlot (90%), Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot opens with syrupy aromas of jammy fruit followed by sweet tobacco and almond paste. The wine is soft, luscious and densely extracted.
