Generous spice and savoury aromas on a palate of dark plum, cherries, some tarry / earthy notes and a little pucker-up tannin on the finish.
Clear, bright scarlet hue; the cause of sangiovese continues to grow as the vines start to reach maturity; here the red, black and sour cherry fruits are backed, not threatened, by fine tannins
Awards and Accolades
2015 Vintage: 91 Points, Special Value Wine - James Halliday, Wine Companion "Even with the aid of a magnifying glass, I couldn't read the microscopic print of the back label. The wine colour is bright, clear crimson-purple, and the wine is a powerful New World interpretation of the variety, cherry in control from start to (the dry) finish. Worthy of a ?don't touch yet' corner of your cellar - or bring on the osso bucco."
