Feb 19th, 201770% Sangiovese 25% merlot 5% carloreno grape (local wild grape). IGT's can still be excellent wines, just means they do not follow the strict rules of a DOC or DOCG. Dark chocolate, toasted coffee. Very very dark. Can really smell the chocolate and on the palate it fades to coffee. Medium spice, good body. Really really good. Sophisticated wine. Age this for 30 years. 2012 vineyard is great, 2011 vineyard is even more incredible. Tasted at Poggio Amorelli winery in Chianti Classico
