I felt like singing the song after tasting this very nice 2012 Podere Sapaio Volpolo!! Last night we tasted 8 wines from the WS Top 100, the stand up event was held downtown at my fave winestore. 60 participants, $50 per head.
2012 Podere Sapaio Bolgheri Volpolo, Tuscany.
Good natural cork, splash decanted, 14.5% alc, served slightly chilled. Darkish reddish purple, some thought cherry colored on the rim. Raspberries on the nose with tobacco hint, oak, herbal, violets, quite attractive from a small pour. Initial entry thought was soft tannins, cassis, blueberry. Tad dusty I thought but really liked this. Think around $40 Cdn.
