A beauty. Nose of mid season cherry, spice, loads of Sangiovese earth. Very high toned and beautiful nose. Some hints of bittersweet cocoa. Palate is ripe and rich with terrific energy and a massive burst of mid season cherry and cherry flower. Big tannins and a slight rustic hint are there (14 showing its stuff) but it’s balanced, pure and energetic. Long as well.

Nose: lifting cherries. As it opens more deep and velvety.

Palate - elegant cherries. Such gorgeous sweet silky fruit. So fresh. Silky tanins. Savory. A bit meaty. Some plum.

He did a masterful job in a vintage that was critically panned.
