Collosorbo's 2017 Sant'Antimo Rosso Giovanna Ciacci is a blend of Syrah, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Sauvignon. This is a hearty and dark wine that opens to savory aromas of leather and cured bresaola meat. It's all a bit much, as the wine ends with a heavy and somewhat syrupy element that must come from the vintage heat. It is textured and thick, with a broad and loosely knit texture that sits heavy over the palate. Some 25,000 bottles were made, and this wine was released in July 2019.

The 2016 Sant'Antimo Rosso Giovanna Ciacci is a well-priced blend of 50% Syrah, 25% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot. On my technical sheet, the wine appears to carry the fantasy name Giovanna Ciacci, but the letters in script are so small and difficult to read you might understandably miss them. This informal red blend opens to an inky dark appearance with black and purple highlights. The bouquet is very intense and fragrant with blackberry, plum and exotic spice (thanks to some brief aging in barrique). The wine is soft, rich and smooth on the palate. I will happily recommend this wine if you are looking for a good value buy from Tuscany. Some 20,000 bottles were made.
