Masterpiece blend of Cabernet Franc, Cab Sauv, and Merlot. Intense and heady aroma of stewed plum, chewy raisins, leather and rosemary. A little lighter on the tongue with some oak. But still very well rounded with deep and complex fruit. The Jackson family experiment in Tuscany is a great success.

Jul 18th, 2021Dark chocolate, cherries, raspberries, minerals, and some oak. Rich and ripe with moderate tannins and lots of acidity. Beautiful integration of many elements.
