2023/9. There’s a wild, leafy element to this which is quite appealing. Flavorful, tangy Sangiovese — 2 years ago

A great “uncork and pour” Toscana IGT Rosso, with a blend ratio of 51% Cab Sauv, 44% Merlot, and 5% Petit Verdot. A truly traditional Bolgheri-styled super tuscan, known for versatile, bright and uplifting wines.
The v.2022 displays fruitier and juicy aromas on the nose driven by blackberries and cherry medley, with some peppy notes as well. The palate welcomes a fresh fruit-forward with medium-less textured tannins, once it opens for about 30 mins shows more subtle ripen red fruits and becomes smoother. Mouthfeel has a soft-end thanks to the MLF in steel tanks. However, the wine was aged for 10 months, partly in barriques used previously for its Ornellaia wines and partly in concrete tanks, to attain a nearly-perfect balance between the structure of its tannins and the fruit-forward expression.
Had this wine in a traditional “Trattoria-style” Ristorante known for Central Tuscany-cuisine. Simply Marvelous! — 2 months ago

I'm not always gonna get a super Tuscan over a proper chianti, but when you're with friends that don't really care for the latter, this is a good alternative — 3 years ago

Lighter more garnet core , quite wide garnet , terracotta rim . Quite light and ethereal on the nose , with cedar , rose , bright red cherry , more delicate and aromatic in profile . On the palate this has fresh acidity and polished tannins, lighter than the Caparsino , a much more delicate and light touch, really elegant . Sweet raspberry and red cherry , touch of anis and spice . Decent length and balance. This is a more delicate and refined experience , pure red fruits and polished tannin . Drinking quite well now though will improve over the next 5 years or so and continue to show well a further 5-10. — 4 days ago
