    Some Italian for obvious reasons




    Interesting. Don't think I've ever had a 100% Malvasia from Tuscany. How does it compare to Sangiovese?

    Sooo, I remember not liking this bottle all that much when we were there.  We ended up having lunch and a wine tasting plus another bottle or so, so was drinking a good bit.  Ended up shipping a bunch of wine home and apparently this ended up in it with a bunch of Chianti, though had planned on not getting it.  Has been sitting for a while, so not sure if that impacted it, but it was good.  It is definitely different, not like anything you would expect from Tuscany. Was real dark so expected it to be a real big wine but it wasn't.  Also expected it to be a lot sweeter than it was.  Now I wish I had more.

    Weird to have not posted in this thread since the pandemic started considering the amount of wine that has been consumed
