Concentrated spice and savory bitterness, with way more acid than I expect from Sangiovese. Huge wine. If pairing with food, be careful: few dishes would stand up.

Visited this winery 2 weeks ago which stores it's barrels under the center of town in a cellar hundreds of years old in Estrucian cave. Brought this back after a tasting and it is still wonderful and deserving of its 94 WS rating. A bold punch yet smooth delivery packing dark fruits and tobacco. It's makes me want to bend over, take a paddle to my ass and say - thank you sir may I have another.

Dried cranberry, Santa Rosa plum, cassis, fresh cherry, with spice and zestiness. Beautiful plush fruit with vibrant, balanced acidity. Gorgeous. Practice for my fall trip!
