Relatively deep color. Rich nose of dark and red berries, along with dried cherry and dry plowed gravelly earth. Mouthfilling and soft, it’s straightforward and quite satisfying. Some soft tannin prevents it from feeling too fat. Acids are soft.

Listening to the Grateful Dead (Barton Hall May 1977). RIP Bob Weir. 😢 — a month ago

Brilliant. Elegant and well balanced. Superb. Outshone the Biondi Santi - albeit completely different character. Love the smooth caressing finish. Beautifully balanced — 8 months ago

The oak has integrated from my previous note in February 2017 where the influence of oak Barriques was overly present. Sangiovese is not enhanced by too much oak in my opinion and is best matured in large Botti like I said in my previous note like Biondi Santi. Red cherry and earth notes finishing with powdery tannins. Coming together. — 21 days ago

Hi Bob, I would expect a higher rating, certainly seen its age

@Anthony De Blasi perhaps a 91 or 92 Anthony but I couldn’t give it more.

Quite pale ruby . Very fresh and red fruited , red currant , cranberry , with fresh herbs , sage , thyme , quite enticing and aromatic. Very refined red fruit on the palate , elegant and fruit forward , with some wet slate . Quite light tannins , and fresh acidity . Good red cherry stained , herbal finish . Good for drinking now but will last well over the next 5 or so years. At Vinous Icons NY , Pier 60 , Feb 2025 — 6 months ago
