Earth, cran…. Subtle apricot and mint finish.

Had a couple glasses after a full day of travel before the jet lag kicked in… so kind of slept through this one but honestly, average. Hoped for more.

Liked. Don’t love. A touch of a stemmy/ green astringency lingered a bit. — 18 days ago

One of my favorite bottles of the trip.
Traditional and earthy Sangiovese flavors, medium tannins,…but overall remaining a bit light and delicate given the flavor profile.

A beautiful elegant wine.and great value at €20.

Will look to get some home.

Got the last bottle at Cortona’a beautiful Al Tocco restaurant. Som said the bottle was “touched by God”.

Sadly, God didn’t know Syrah just isn’t my jam.

Nice change of pace. Enjoyed.
