Wow! Deep, near blackish purple in the glass. Nose and medium-bodied palate of blackberry, black cherry, and roasted anise.. Medium tannins. Medium plus acidity. medium long dark finish. A Toscana Sangiovese from a renowned Brunello producer, this deep and rich wine portends the weightier wines to come (albeit from different vineyards). Enjoy with pizza and lighter Tuscan fare and contemplate what’s coming 5-6 years on. Drink by 2021; when the better Rossos start arriving.

Not my favorite. Dry and tannins. A hint of fruit maybe cherry. Not very full, complex flavor but very intense in what it does offer
