This is really good. Pairing it with Polpettone alla Toscana. Color is surprisingly youthful for a 10-year old. Very complex nose has rich dark cherry, loads of iodine-rich dark minerality, a little clove, old leather, “rich mahogany” a la Ron Burgundy. In other words, primary, secondary, and tertiary all in play. Tight, almost austere in the mouth, still tannic. Evolving quite slowly. Wonderful concentration and length. It needs the rich food.

My absolute favorite of the Cinciano wines I've tried. Has some spicy notes, more complex flavors. Something that you would want to drink and really think about all the flavors your tasting.
