Critic tasting note: " 90 per cent Sangiovese with 10 per cent of Colorino, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. This has a fairly youthful garnet colour and quite a dark, earthy character on the nose with some sour cherry and plum fruit. On the palate there's a note of espresso-like darkness to this, with more of that plummy fruit, with a plum-skin bite of darkness and acidity, and polished tannins in the background. Whilst it doesn't display the lightness of touch of some, with a little more heft and depth, it is a lovely wine." -Ā 90/100,Ā Tom Cannavan Aging 24Ā months in oak barrique.
