This 2007 wine is now at its peak. Sure wished I had bought two cases of it. Great with red sauces

Love this wine - great price for quality/everyday drinker. Well balanced strawberry/cherry and vanilla aromas, with a crisp quick slate finish at first that progressively softens. 92

Had the '09 and really liked it. Smooth and complex finish. Drinks like a brunello but more fruit forward. Heard it was a cross between brunello and supertuscan and it definitely drank like it. Best of both

Vanilla cherry and oak. Hints at qualities of a brunello.
