A ripe yet elegant and pretty Tuscan red. Pale ruby with garnet core and rim, thyme, stemmy characters, unsweetened red licorice, tart red cherry and very ripe almost stewed red cherry and CRANBERRY and tangerine. Rocks. Marjoram. Sanguine especially on the palate. High acidity med+ tannins, med+ finish, tart on the palate.

A beautiful Tuscan wine blended from old vines in several vineyards. Deep Ruby with aromas of dark fruits, complex spice and earthy tobacco notes. On the palate flavors of cherry and raspberry with notes of tar, leather and toasty oak. Fine soft elegant tannins, long finish, good balance ending with fruit, spice and earthy notes, well structured, aging well. Very nice. Tasting Sample!

Cherries and Christmas spice on the nose. Midweight. Purple fruit. Good mouth-feel.

Medium bodied but packs a punch. Raspberry jam, maple bacon, Galaxy (in the US, Dove) chocolate bar. Good grip. Sustains well.

Very elegant - needs a couple of hours in a decanter before it starts to open, but then it is redolent of violet, sour cherry, leather, fennel, and forest flour. Very well balanced and deceptively graceful because there is no shortage of power here either. Long finish. Better in two or three years
