I need to case up on this before it is gone. This has been my favorite Sangiovese for many years, as Brunello is a little oversized for our taste. The 2010 Rocca has all the dark cherry power that I need, but also great texture and fabulous, mouthwatering acidity. This is a long finishing superstar. It went very well with pork-chop, grilled radicchio and polenta!

Savory red fruits, nice sour cherry flavors and a nice and lengthy finish. Delicious.
