100% Sangiovese, Deep Ruby with berry fruit aromas with cedar, herbs and smoke. On the palate cherry, plum & raspberry flavors, with leather, cacao, spice and tobacco notes. Lively acidity, fine dusty drying tannins, long ending with spicy herb smoky oak finish. Nice! — 9 months ago

Very nice bottle — 8 years ago
Young ruby of pretty clarity. Very meaty and savory nose, plus black soil and mineral aromas. Incredible parade of flavors, showing very frank fruit, wild berries flavors, combined with beautiful volcanic rock minerality and phenomenal structure. Certainly a baby Brunello, at a great price. Very lingering finish. 89 pts. — 11 years ago

Medium ruby garnet core with quite wide garnet rim . On the nose this shows some development with dry spices , leather , dark cherry, cedar , dried rosemary , sage with some meaty hints . On the palate there is quite a lot of structure with gritty , somewhat rustic tannins and fresh acidity . Menthol tinged dark cherry , liquorice , dried sage and dry spices . Good length and balance with fresh acidity , the alcohol though is a little warming so I would drink this on the cooler side . This is quite a structured , traditionally styled Brunello but with personality and presence . Drinking quite well and showing some development, will perhaps continue to improve over next few years and last well a further 5-10 . — 8 days ago
