The 2013 Bolgheri Superiore Maronea is Cabernet Sauvignon enhanced with Cabernet Franc. This is a darkly layered and concentrated wine with full-body appeal. I must say, however, that it delivers a highly unique set of aromas that span from spearmint to garden mint to some oddly familiar exotic or medicinal herbs that I can't quite place. The second time I came back to the bouquet, I was reminded of toothpaste. It's an acquired taste I suppose but I can also imagine getting tired of it after a glass or two.
