Blend of about 90% Sangiovese with Cab Sauv and a splash of Merlot, aged in large oak casts. Deep Ruby, black and red fruit aromas with toasty oak and herb pepper spice nuances. On the palate flavors of blackberries and sour cherries, savory full tannins, full body, nice balance, long finish ending with wet stone mineral character. Much better than older vintages.

3.2. a good Chianti, but for the age and price I found it tasted somewhat flat. Sold for $23.74.

December 2021 wine club- $33.00- deep ruby Brad didn’t like, but I loved it. Tasting notes state “medium bodied and tight with intense tannins and flavorful finish. Very racy and intense”
