Old school earthy complexity. Super fine tannins. Simply put, one of the best wines I've had.

Mid palate is non existent but carries good acid and fruit through to the finish. Good food wine.

Nov 6th, 2014A nice CS/Sangiovese blend from around Pisa.
Very interesting how this evolves in the glass with the character of the two grapes coming out to shine and fading - sometimes this is very much reminiscent of a northern Medoc with gravelly black currants, a few minutes later the hallmark tomato leaf + some rusticity of Sangiovese emerges.
On the palate this is quite firm with a proper tannic frame filled with black cherry & black currant and juicy acidity.
Good depth & length and surprisingly youthful.
