Vintage 2009. Italian rooftiles colour. Beautiful spicyness. Noblemens character. Some chocolate. Definitely not ready to drink yet. Still tannic, so needs aeration,

Fantastic super tuscan. 50/50 blend of SG and CS. Opulent nose and drinking smoothly!

Still too young. drinkable but good for many years still. Structure, power and finesse combined. Took half a bottle home after tasting. Kept getting better for 3 days. After which it was finished...
