“Intense, brilliant ruby with a fine garnet shimmer. Very appealing, open nose, aromas of raspberry and black cherry, fine spice components in the background. Displays lots of juicy fruit on the palate, opens with grippy, firm tannins, pithy, firm drive on the finish, rich tobacco notes.”
“Crafted from a single hillside site at 580 metres. This blend of 90% Sangiovese, 5% Canaiolo and 5% Colorino was aged for 12 months in large tonneaux with some French barrique. Fragrant black cherry and black currant fruit intertwine with sandalwood aromatics, building on a sturdy, well-structured medium-bodied palate. Firm tannins provide power and length, gradually revealing bright floral tones and sweet herbs and liquorice on the extended finish. A beautifully balanced and expressive wine with depth and energy.”
