Notes | |||
"Deep crimson in color with purple reflections. The bouquet is intense and persistent with nuances of violet, red berries, cherries, toasted vanilla, leather notes, and hints of chocolate. Velvety texture and long, lingering finish." —winemaker Blend: 75% Sangiovese, 15% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Savory, sweet and perfumed, the nose on this wine gives dark chocolate, dried figs and old leather. Juicy and berry rich, the palate conveys strawberries, cherries, more figs and more chocolate. Tannins make themselves felt and an acid kick is here, for a wine that's lush but not spineless." —Wine Enthusiast "Cassis, spearmint, blackcurrants and sweet vanilla on the nose. Rich, ripe and opulent, with a full body and round tannins. Lightly jammy, but flavorful, with mint chocolate on the finish. Slightly one-dimensional this year from the hot vintage. 75% sangiovese, 15% merlot and 10% cabernet sauvignon. Vegan. Drink now or hold." —James Suckling |
