Argiano Rosso di Montalcino 2013

Light and translucid garnet color. A little green at first, aromas of cherries and clay will come with air. Chewiness and good acidity level pairs with Morello cherries, small red berries on a short finish. Still, I like that lighter style very food friendly. Good+ (88)

Made of 100% Sangiovese. Aged in one year old French oak barrels and Slovenian oak cask. Alcohol level of 14%

Available at the SAQ for 24,40$ (Code SAQ : 10252869)

San Fabiano Calcinaia Casa Boschino Toscana 2013

Medium ruby color. Nose of cherries, dry herbs, dry fruits and leather. On the palate it’s an explosion of Morello cherries! A bit dry on the finish, this wine stays on the light side and fun to drink without being flabby. Table friendly wine that will pair well with pasta and/or anything tomato dishes. Good+ (88)
