Hailing from Radda in Chianti this beautiful 100% Sangiovese is grown at pretty high altitude (about 1470 ft) and is facing the most famous Pergole Torte vineyard. The wine shows a ruby red core with clear rim. The nose is seducing with ripe raspberry, cherry, violet and crushed flowers. As it opens it shows more of mineral spine and spices and a touch of smoke. In the mouth it is medium plus body with good acidity and medium tannins. I really liked it and am curious to see how it will evolve.
