Jun 14th, 2021Banfi was founded in 1978 by the Italian-American brothers, John and Harry Mariani. A blend of Sangiovese, Cab Sauv & Syrah. Aromas of fruit herb and spice. On the palate ripe red jammy currant fruits, tangy spice and lively acidity. Fine tannins, medium finish ending with fruit and spice. Good now, should age well!

On the palate chewy red fruits, leaning towards jammy currant like, tangy spice and lively acidity. Tight tannins took a while to open, medium finish ending with fruit and spice. Good now but a few years in the cellar with reward.
