Savignola Paolina Il Granaio Super Tuscan Blend 2009

Ludovica (known as "Ludo" among friends) and her husband Antonio produce just 2,000 bottles of this jammy, tasty Super Tuscan blend of Merlot and Sangiovese. This tiny production gem is dark garnet in color with a mouthful of blackberry, blueberry, dried figs and nice black cherry & currants coming through on the nose and palate.  There is a pleasant earthiness from the local Panzano red soils, which balances nicely with the modest tannins and great acidity you expect to find in wines with Sangiovese. Delicious.
