Unchanged opinion. See previous review of the same vintage. Fabulous wine. Classic. Dark cherries, earth, dust. Quite tannic. Great now with air or give it 2-3 more years.

Lovely immediate brightness, melding into layers of fruit and earth. My favorite of the 2019 cuvee’s. Vineyard in Radda

Excellent classic Sangiovese. Retried a day later really quite good a winery to watch and a favorite of Eric Asimov at the NYT. No formal notes. But I will for sure buy and try other cuvée’s.
