100% Sangiovese. The medium+ intensity nose seems a bit shy, yet offers attractively classic Bing red cherry, sweet spice, and clove aromas layered over savoury wet earth. The medium+ to medium-full bodied palate is dry with very nice, well-balanced aromas replay, and supported by balanced acidity and medium tannins. A bit youthful, but still well-balanced throughout with earthy notes lingering on the long, satisfying finish. Tasted Oct. 2024. Score: 91+ pts
