A powerful and poised example of Sangiovese fully ascended. With meticulous cultivation and four years of barrel aging, this wine transforms into something far beyond it’s cousin Chianti. The colour is dark ruby and the nose is classic Sangiovese, transporting one instantly to Montalcino. The bouquet is a little tight at first ranging from gentle balsamic notes and a hint of steak. In time it deepens to a delicious herbaceousness, accompanied by mouth-watering aromas of ripe cherry and dark berries. In the background tell-tale floral notes of violets lurk. In the mouth the first impression is of a very pleasant juiciness paired with ripe fruit and seductive well-structured tannins. The mouth-feel is round and silky-smooth with expertly integrated alcohol. It is generously mouth-filling and rewards with a long fruity finish. And while it’s drinking gorgeously now, this is one of the few bottles we really do recommend giving it a year or two more in the cellar before it reaches its peak drinking years. Hold it for a year, if you can resist.
