Ruby red color with rich and intense tones. Variety of aromatic herbs accentuated with generous notes of tobacco and wet earth (dry earth, as well), black currant and licorice. The palate manifests good consistency of medium-smooth tannins to ensure the lengthy ageing. Rich structure and weight and elegant breed on the finish. Optimum cellar life in all vintages.
95 Points - Wine Enthusiast, January 2014. "Made entirely from Sangiovese, it opens with fragrances that recall spicy black berries and Mediterranean herbs. The velvety palate delivers power and finesse along with fleshy black cherry, licorice and a graphite note."
94 Points - Falstaff, April 2016. "A medium-bodied Tuscan red with a slight ripe edge. The nose has a stylish Chianti bouquet of balsamic notes, cedar, tobacco, vanilla and black fruit. The attack is soft and well-supported by silky tannin and fresh acidity. It's delicate and leads to a long finish -elegant, and at the same time powerful. Increasingly complex with air."
