Terrabianca Campaccio 2004

This weekend we ordered a bottle of the Terrabianca Campaciio 2004 for a dinner party. The Campaccio is a "super-tuscan" wine from Italy that is a mix of 70% Sangiovese and 30% Cabernet. This medium-bodied wine had a deep red color and aromas of strawberry, plum and cocoa with a hint of leather. The structure was excellent with the fruit and some oakiness and a finish of cherries and vanilla. Nice long finish!! The wine got better as it opened. Highly recommend this wine. I will be looking to put some away for a few more years. This wine retails for about $26.
