Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

Deep Ruby color with aromas of red fruits, floral, citrus and smoky oak, 100% Sangiovese. On the palate flavors of ripe blackberry, cherry and plum flavors with floral notes, cacao, tobacco and toasty notes from oak aging. Fine ripe sweet tannins, long finish ending with fruit and an earthy smoky mineral spice character. Nice! Will age! Organic!
