The 2006 has matured wonderfully since release. Here I found a seductive mix of dark chocolate, sweet spice, Tuscan dust, plum, blueberry skins and dried strawberries. On the palate I found velvety textures lifted by textbook Sangio acidity, with spiced cherry, mulled apple, Balsamico and a hint of black licorice. It finished wonderfully fresh and long on dark red fruit, cinnamon and a bitter twang of savory herbs. This is in a beautiful place right now, with no fear of decline in the foreseeable future.

17/20 (93/100) Аромат чёрных ягод и фруктов с выраженным тоном чернослива, орегано, гвоздики и чёрного перца. Тельное с довольно интенсивными, бархатистыми по текстуре танинами, кислотность выше среднего. Отлично!

Great blend of sangiovese earth, with cab/merlot dark red fruit, smooth with firm tannins. Good acidity keeps my interest.
