93 points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate 90 points, Wine Spectator Why to buy: Here is a Tuscan wine for those who simply love Italian wines—a powerhouse of a big red.

Characteristics: Structured and impressive, this blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese and Merlot has notes of blackberry and blackcurrants, herbs and tar, tobacco, cedar and vanilla. On the palate, it blossoms into rich, round plums, cherries and soft tannins—with a wonderful, broad finish. Tuscan wines are at the very heart of the Italian lifestyle, and this extraordinary wine is no exception.

Varietals: 34% Sangiovese, 33% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot
Alcohol: 14%
Appellation: Tuscany IGT

The Gaetani family has retained control over their 4,200 Italian estate for five centuries. Today they sell beautiful olive oils, and wines that have been aged in a brick-vaulted cellar modeled after a late-19th century structure.
