Winemaker Notes
The wine has a deep ruby red color. The nose displays hints of green pepper, licorice and graphite melted with oak vanilla flavors. Full bodied with a ripe fruit palate, Legit has the potential to age for a long period of time, which is typical of the Cabernet Sauvignon produced in the Castelnuovo Berardenga Area.
Professional Ratings
93 Wine Spectator
This robust red shows nice balance between the black currant, plum, licorice, cedar and spice flavors and the dense matrix of tannins. Starts out fluid, before the dusty tannins take hold on the finish. This is long, so have faith. Best from 2026 through 2043.
93 Vinous
The 2020 Legit, 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, is bright and nicely focused, with plenty of varietal character married to Tuscan energy. This is one of the more focused, nervous wines in the range.
91 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Here's a wine with a jazzy vibe that transcends the jazzman depiction on the front label. The Tolaini 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Legit shows a warm, savory bouquet that is lavished over with leather, cooked fruit and even a touch of charred meat or barbecue. Think cigar smoke in a backroom music hall. This vintage has a distinctively opulent, almost heavy feel.
91 Wine Enthusiast
The nose is primarily peppery grilled meat, but plums and currants cut that savory smokiness. The palate glides gracefully in the opposite direction, as an initial blast of macerated dark fruit gives way to resurgent sanguinity before a bitter finish emphasized by imposing tannins and unrelenting acid.
