2000 Centine (red wine from Tuscany)

[dananne]

Popped a 2004 version of this and consumed it over two nights. Not a bad little bottle for the price (around $10). Shows black cherry and plum with a hint of earthy minerality on the finish, and it would go well with a wide range of foods. Approachable with softer tannins, but not lacking structure. 12.5% alc. I'm sure Banfi's huge production of this wine has made it widely available. Again, nothing extra special about it, but it's well-made and offers good value as an everyday wine that is versatile with food.
