Petra’s 2002 Toscana Rosso, a barrique-aged blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, presents a slightly less intense color along with notes of tobacco, earthiness, herbs, truffles and sweet fruit which suggests it is entering its early maturity. It shows excellent length as well as balance considering the challenging nature of the vintage. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2012.This young estate is located in Suvereto. Although these aren’t the most complex wines being produced in the region, they are fairly accessible and are sure to provide much pleasure.Importer: Extreme Spirits, Franklin, TN; tel. (615) 771-9111
