Wow! Aged a bit too long, but still a pleasure to drink. Go for it! — a day ago
A more leaner rendition of this varietal, but in a good way. Nose displays clean cinnamon and toast. Palate is broad and expansive, yet light on its feet. A kiss of vanilla pod and black fruits conclude an excellent presentation. This is an intellectual wine.

Blend of primarily Sangiovese (60%) along with some Sagrantino and Merlot. Medium ruby color with purple highlights. Aromas of black fruits, dark chocolate, leather, forest floor and dried herbs. Black cherry, cassis, pomegranate flavors with additional hints of tobacco, black licorice and wet soil. Medium earthy finish with a grainy texture. Some grip and power but nicely balanced. Solid quality and value. — 13 hours ago
