Blend of 38% Merlot, 17% Cabernet Franc, 22% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Petit Verdot and 8% Other Red Grapes, deep Ruby color with aromas of dark fruits with herb and toasty oak notes. On the palate flavors of blackberry and cherry with smoke, tar and sweet herb spice. This is a full-bodied red that wraps thickly over the palate, showing rich density and concentration along the way. Fine tannins, long finish ending with ripe fruit and toasty earthy oak character. — 9 months ago
LOVED it. Excellent wine, excellent price. — 5 years ago
Such an intense inviting nose and sexy opulent palate. I’ve been on a roll lately with excellent Sangiovese based wines (this is 100%), but this ranks high across the board, and still not close to fully mature. Herbs and spices, leather, ripe rich red fruits, silky tannins, buoyant acidity. Nothing NOT to like here, especially when paired with a pork osso bucco. — 8 years ago
Cherries forever. Coffee. Marzipan. Expressive and agile. Slight funky undertones. The prettiest girl at the dance — 9 years ago
A real treat to see a 34 year old Italian beauty. Dried herb and fruit. Earthy, dark dried fruits. Soft soft tannin with rounded acid. Lost its vibrancy and that bang that sucks you in. Admirable it has held up and a beautiful experience. 89 points. — 10 years ago

Тальк, сочная вишня, брусника, красная смородина, легкие животные тона, пот, марганцовка, каперсы, сухая земля. Среднее тело с элегантной, естественной органолептикой, живой кислотностью и тонкими, аккуратными танинами. Уже вполне открыто, в хорошей форме. Легко и изящно в движениях, без большой комплексности, но с отличной фактурой и внутренней гармонией. — 7 years ago

Wonderful wine! Dry as the Sahara desert, complex nose, cherry, herbs, very small touch of citrus. Long lasting on the palette. Paired beautifully with a crispy duck leg confit — 5 months ago
