Morellino di Scansano  - 85-100% Sangiovese,  remainder local varieties

When I first tried this wine at the shop I worked at I really enjoyed it, that was the 2004.  The 2005 has left me a bit disappointed although the third day that I had it opened it tasted better and I really enjoyed it.

The nose and the flavours were both muted and the wine didn't seem very interesting.  Tannins were not over the top considering the amount of sediment..it's a 2005 is it supposed to have that much???. 

I probably would not buy the 2005 again but I still have a 2004...who knows maybe my palate has changed and I will think the 2004 is no good any more...Hmmm maybe I could write professionally now.
