The top product of the Brancaia brand is the Brancaia IL BLU, IGT (Supertuscan),
50% Sangiovese, 45% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon.
Blackberries, currants and berries with hints of minerals. Full-bodied and chewy, with lots of character.
It's 5pm, Saturday afternoon.... cellphone rings....Buddy calls for a quick bottle at our usual haunt....5.10pm we are sitting around this bottle we have had several times before.... The results is another well spent couple of hours catching up and the accompanying bottle did not disappoint....Still young, it was surprisingly approachable and fun to drink today,... At first the taste had lots of leather.... That too gave way over time first cherry then plumb.... We drank over the course of an hour and a half.... I'm guessing that 3 hours of decanting would have really helped.
As always the downside to drinking in KL is that it will set you back RM268 a bottle retail.
