The nose is dark and rich, showing sweet herbs, crushed black cherry, lavender and violets with hints of floral undergrowth. On the palate, soft textures give way to a mix of red and blue fruits, hints of spice and savory herbs, all made vibrant through brisk acidity. The finish is medium in length, with a buzz of lingering acids mixed with fine tannin, as tart red fruits and spices slowly fade from the senses. This is so easy to like already, yet sure to improve with mid-term cellaring.

Very decent, very typical chianti classico. So: cherry, blackberry, oak, tobacco.

2016 is an exceptional year, bringing order and harmony into a chaotic and unpredictable world of Sangiovese without sacrificing the wildness and energy.
