Occasional wine note

This is a Sangiovese on the bigger side with a depth of flavors and aromas we didn't expect when we first tasted this excellent specimen. This is a full-bodied wine with ripe dark fruits, floral hints, earthy and chocolaty undertones, great tannin structure, and a long finish. You won't forget this one.

What experts say about this wine

100

Falstaff

Bright ruby red, lighter at the rim. On the nose, hearty and inviting, with rich cherry, wild berries, plus a touch of dark chocolate and earthy tones in the background. On the palate, textured and clear, spreads juicily and with balanced tannins over the palate, shows elegant drive, and returns to juicy on the long finish.

Raffaele Vecchione

Potent in the sensory profile alternating notes of black prunes, blackberries, wild myrtle and withered red flowers. Full bodied, soft, enveloping and creamy in the sip with a graceful, tasty closure showing a polyphenolic quality of a select few.
