2016 vintage….an exceptional year.
85 % Cabernet Sauvignon and 15 % Cabernet Franc from Maremma, Tuscany close to the ocean. 18 months in small French oak barrels …70 % new.
Aromas of blackberry, raspberry kirsch and walnuts.
Dark fruit, a touch of earthiness, bay laurel leaves with polished tannins, fresh acidity and a seamless finish.
We had a 50 day dry aged strip loin for dinner with this wine.
