A lovely read from the marche that is 70% Sangiovese which gives it backbone, length and structure while the 30% Merlot gives a bit of richness, supple flow and personality to the stern Sangiovese. The wine shows lots of red cherry character balanced with meaty savory expression from the Merlot. Try it with spaghetti Bolognese! — 5 years ago
Composed mostly of Sangiovese, together with Cabernet Sauvignon, Canelo Nero, Colorino, Merlot and Syrah. Cabernet Sauvignon previous called Ove Francesca has been grown and Carmmignano since 1700. This is a modern day super Tuscan with classical styling, wild cherry and savory earthy elements in the nose with a bold, structured body that has hints of olive, rosemary and a complex blend of wild fruits. — 5 years ago

Comes from Vineyards that are 16 to 25 years old and a gentle slope facing south west at about 1000 to 1100 feet. Soil of marine origin with underlying foundation of marl and limestone. Powerful wine and needs decanting a couple of hours ahead. — 5 years ago
Organic agriculture vineyards lie above 1100 feet. The wine is full of smoke, porcini dust and sweet earth with dark cherry and plump berry aromatics. Try with grilled meats or a hearty pasta. — 5 years ago
