Product description
Deep ruby red with garnet hues, it has pronounced cherry and violet fruit with tobacco, cedar and spicy leather nuances on the nose. It is a rich, full-bodied and rounded red wine of remarkable depth whose elegant structure will enable it to mature gracefully.
94 Points - Wine & Spirits
Precisely ripe and perfectly balanced, this wine has an ease and tension, lasting on a crystal clear note of cherry, as if picked fresh off the tree in spring. There's more to it than just the cherry, with floral scents of violets and a lacy geode of minerals within the fruit. Luscious tannin smoothes the texture, making it approachable now; this blend of 90-percent sangiovese with cabernet sauvignon is more immediately accessible than the Badia a Passignano, and should age beautifully over the next 10 years.
