Very much alive, showing a nice core of dried red fruits framed by leather, cigar, sweet brown spice, Pernod, vanilla, hoisin and chestnut. The acid considerably fresh, tannins are integrated and soft, the sweet oak is present but mingles well with the aged-Sangiovese character.

2018 vintage Nov 2021. Dark ruby color. Decant an hour and opens nicely. Yummy red fruit, with black fruit coming in later, earthy and mineraly. Fruit pretty mild at this point. Long mineral finish. Chewy yet smooth, very nice and fulfilling mouthfeel. Strong backbone. Will be interesting to see how this one ages.
