Sipping Fine Wine

9.0

Banfi was founded in 1978 by the Italian-American brothers, John and Harry Mariani. A blend of Sangiovese, Cab Sauv & Syrah. Aromas of fruit herb and spice. On the palate chewy red fruits, leaning towards jammy currant like, tangy spice and lively acidity. Tight tannins took a while to open, medium finish ending with fruit and spice. Good now but a few years in the cellar with reward. — 5 years ago

This juicy blend of Cabernet Sauvignon from California and Cabernet Franc from Virginia shows the legacy of the Mariani in viticulture is a deep rooted one. Lush ripe, juicy black fruit shows a full body, plush structure and juicy acidity exploding with black cherry, hints of cigar box, Sweet tobacco, blackberries and a brush of black pepper on the smooth soft finish. — 6 years ago

I love these ancestrale method wines. So unique and a little unpredictable I guess? Lots of cranberry and red current on the nose... On the palate, that cranberry develops into maybe a richer raspberry, but this doesn't ever really get sweet. I like the dryness here... And the acidity makes the appies on the patio pop. This is always a fun brand and I look forward to each new vintage! — 3 years ago
