100% Sangiovese. Deep ruby color. Quite noticeable aromas of bramble berries, black cherry, spice and vanilla. The very busy pallet features fresh and dried black cherry/berry, black licorice, blood, tobacco and herbs. A bit of spice on the very long finish. Quite savory, concentrated and medium/full bodied. This one can stand up to hearty and robust foods. Thank You Keith S! Revisited in September 2023. Still excellent! — 2 years ago
