Nose has beautifully ripe-tart cherry, wisps of smoke, and just cracked white stones. Intense flavors in a medium weight frame, with excellent acids and a pure, lingering, lip-smacking finish. So youthful tasting. Fantastic with porks chops braised in Marsala, red wine, and tomato paste.

Popped and poured. I’ve been wanting to try one of these for a while and my patience finally broke. I had too many distractions while hosting to really get into taking more formal notes but I recall this bottle being open for business. Really expressive fruit with impeccable balance; an absolute delight to drink. Bottle lasted less than 15 minutes. I definitely need to carve out more time with the next one. While still quite primary now it’s very enjoyable to drink and should be just fine in a proper cellar until 2025.

This was very, very good. 100% Sangiovese, whole bunches. Great amount of fruit, sweet tannins, long finish.

The purity of Sangiovese fruit on this wine is remarkable. Sweet, oozy fresh 🍒, subtle gravel and cinnamon notes. Intensely flavorful yet lithe, with a long intense and pure finish. I think this will be even better in 2-4 years as it has got some tannic scaffolding too.
