2010. High quality Sangiovese with all the classic red fruit flavors but still drinking young. Would have expected a bit more complexity at this stage but can’t complain about the concentration and backbone. Will have to wait. $60 at WL.

🍷 Dark ruby w/ brick edge

👃 Chocolate cherry & raspberry gateaux sprinkled with vanilla & coffee w/ a smokey oak & spiced herby plum whiff

👄 Med silky elegant body of chewy cherry in creamy chocolate w/ raspberry, plum & vanilla

🎯 Long warming cherry gateaux gooey linger

Cassis, violet, licorice on the nose. Lots of fruit but in a very mature fashion. Slender body, pretty tannic and mostly cherry on the palate.
