Dark and seductive nose of dark fruits, leather, mahogany, figs, fruit and nut chocolate and scorched earth. Palate similar to that of the nose and is supported by ripe, yet plentiful tannin with great flavour intensity and length.

Lovely quality to the fruit but really a bit overripe! 2011 = vintage of the devil

The Chateau Margaux of Tuscany. High-toned, little crushed blue fruits; then, leathery, savory Sangio on palate. Quite balanced for a hot year.

2011 - generoso, ciliegia e amarene in crostata, sale e spezie. Molto meglio in bocca, di elevata struttura e impeccabile equilibrio tra le sue componente compresa una texture tannica di livello. Mineralissimo!

Very young and spicy. Lots of wood, lots of dark fruit
