Smoky redcurrant and cherry nose, but sharp and acidic in the mouth but some good bitter fruit, full on alcoholic finish

Loads of under-ripened cherries and a fair amount of acid. To be expected. A little austere. Doesn't hold up to Malloredus very well. Good. Not great.

Dried cherries and super dried leather aromas. Almost thought it was corked but a little breathing time it came to life. Palate has nice structure with cherry and Turkish tobacco, acidity made for a great companion with meatballs!

Аромат плотный, вяленая груша, курага, вяленая слива, красный апельсин. Интересно. Вкус полный с вялеными фруктами, черным чаем, пряностями. Очень интересный образец, которому несколько не хватает общей структуры и изящества. 15.5/20 (85/100)

Great example of Sangiovese. Earthy, dark berry goodness. Nice acidity.
