This authentic Sangiovese demonstrates liquorice and dark cherry dominating with a savoury earthiness. Silky and smooth with some drying tannins and the soft acid. A lingering blackberry and vanilla spice aftertaste demands a second glass of this classic Italian varietal.
A deep crimson red colour with hints of purple. An initial nose of dark cherry, violets and mulberries. A subtle nutty and vanilla character derived from oak maturation, adding to the overall complexity.
"Evocative earthy herb-garden smells give this Italian variety plenty of extra character beyond its bright red berry lift. Then you get a well-set-up mouthful of upstanding sangio, full of bite and layered with foresty aromatics as well as chocolately tannins, which all come together in a pretty smart red that needs a huge meaty platter to do it proper justice." 4.5 out of 5 stars- Tony Love, National Wine Writer
