Tolaini Legit Cabernet Sauvignon Toscana 2020 750ml

Legit is Tolaini's 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, grown at the family estate near Castelnuovo Berardenga, just outside Siena in the southern Chianti Classico hills.

Tolaini works two estates, Montebello and San Giovanni, planted to Sangiovese alongside Bordeaux varieties. Cabernet here ripens in the warm Tuscan sun but keeps a savory, herbal edge that sets it apart from New World versions. It is a natural fit with our other Tuscan wines.

It's deep ruby, with green pepper, licorice and graphite layered with vanilla from oak, then blueberry, blackberry and cocoa with a touch of cinnamon over fine tannins. It's full-bodied, with the structure for long aging.

The 2020 vintage gives it real density, so it rewards patience or a decanter.

Choose a Napa bottle from our Cabernet Sauvignon shelf when you want plush, ripe fruit; pick Legit when you want Cabernet with Tuscan grip and a savory finish.

Decant it for an hour and serve at 62 to 65°F in a large Bordeaux glass. Bistecca alla fiorentina, lamb chops or aged pecorino all stand up to its tannins. Pick it up at our Brooklyn store or get same-day delivery in Brooklyn, Manhattan & Queens.
