Wine of the Week - Milan Vineyards 2009 Duet

Went to a tasting up in the Santa Monica Mountains recently, and came back with four great wines that I'll be talking about here in the coming months. The first is the Milan Vineyards Duet, a 50/50 blend of sangiovese and cabernet sauvignon.
On the nose, there are high notes of sharp acid and low notes of tobacco and tomato soup.
The taste is strong and full, with a steady touch of anise throughout. An absolutely delicious wine.
