DEATH NOTE & TOLAINI

Dark and intriguing, both the 2010 Tolaini Valdisanti Toscana and Death Note capture your attention with gripping nuances. As they say, 'the devil (in this case the 死神 - Shinigami) is in the details.'

That said, let's get right down to the ominous details. Instant enthrallment is damn near guaranteed by the second sip of this wine or by the end of the second episode. Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese & Cabernet Franc make for an impressive cast, whose match is met with the three main characters Light, L & Ryuk. In the case of either this wine or this anime, when the glass or episode is finished, you want just one thing... more. Captivating with great depth and dimension, raise your glass to a pairing worth sipping and seeing more and more of. Cheers to dark and intriguing pairings.

Cheers,
