Beef-a-Roni with bay leaf and poblano in a tomato sauce, dried oregano, and a crystalline, smoky incense, and a hint of turtle soup. Black cherry, something between a plum and a prune, black river pebbles, burnt strawberry jam, and beer skin. Creative depth and some winemaker influence in the cedar and tobacco that follow. But not enough to derail a beauty. #Petra #Sangiovese #Tuscany #tuscanred #italianwines #italianwinelovers #redwine #bigredwine

Sangiovese 100%, from one of the driest places in Tuscany, and you can find it in this interpretation. Correct and technically perfect...

Nice Tuscany coast sangiovese. New oak sensations. Full body, medium acidity and smooth tannins.

Very nice SG but a bit too dry for my taste.
