Very balanced with darker red fruit, good tannic structure, and very nice acidity. Nice flavors imparted from the barrel aging. Still very young with great potential for cellaring!

Sangiovese from Emilia Romagna, good but a little too much alcoholic heat.

Such a huge Sangiovese - I doubt anyone could pick it out blind. Mostly this drinks like a big new world Cabernet, so impressive. One of only 9 available in the US at the time - thanks WD!!! (Yes, pic is of a 2012)

Gum drying tannins that disappeared 15 minutes after opening. Dark color on this young sangiovese, from Emiglia Romagna. Enjoyed it at Buca San Petronio, Bologna.

Yes!! Held out 5 month before cracking this one, and not disappointed. Red fruit, flavourful oak, slight leather and spice, and medium mouth-filling tannins... All perfectly balanced. Really nice! Christmas gift fr staff.... Mitch say about $60. 14%
