2018 Corte Medicea Eklektos Super Tuscan 12x750ml

99 Point Tuscan Cabernet Dream "The Best Tuscan Red Wine" by Luca Maroni 94 Point Vintage, Vinous Media About the Wine "Super Tuscans" are anarchic and revolutionary wines, wines that are not following the traditional winemaking rules in the region’s DOC and DOCG. Instead of using the classic grape of the region: Sangiovese, these wines are mainly made with grapes used for “Bordeaux Blends”, Cabernet Sauvignon, and/or Merlot. In some cases, Super Tuscans are even better than DOC and DOCG wines, but because of their “rebellion”, they have to be classified into lower categories such as "Vino da Tavola" or "Indicazione Geografica Tipica" (IGT). Eklektos embraces the modern style of winemaking as 10% of the grapes are harvested late in order to obtain the rich, sweet blueberry fruit that defines many Napa Cabernet Sauvignon. People who love the wines of Orin Swift and Caymus will find an Italian friend here. Corte Medicea winery was born from a passion for the Tuscan winemaking trad
