Opened prior to service. The 2021 “Scipio” pours a ruby/purple color with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity and moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of cassis, tobacco, purple flowers, capsicum, warm spices and organic earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. A tasty Super Tuscan that celebrates Cabernet Franc (100%). Drink now through 2040. Bottle 570/1200.
