Buy this wine. Superb balance and great value after 9 years in the cellar. Lovely cherry plum fruit forward with subtle oaky vanilla notes.

This has some nice weight to it for a Sangiovese blend. Bright red fruit up front but rustic flavors follow immediately: earth, tobacco, leather, wood. High acidity, feisty tannins, persistent earth notes; bold and full bodied with a silky mouthfeel and good finish. Impressively good.
