Excellent with Prossimo Sunday gravy. Raspberry, earthiness, but smooth. Still bright with years to go. — a month ago

A beautiful wine at just the right maturity for me. Tannins have softened but still there. Red cherry mint tobacco in medium wright package. — 3 months ago
Another excellent vintage! Bright ruby color. Aromas and flavors of crushed stone, ripe black cherry/currants, blackberry, plums, exotic spices, red and purple flowers, forest floor and balsamic vinegar. Long and savory finish. So complex. Ripe and tight tannins and well balanced acidity. Consistently excellent. — 16 days ago

My friend from Emilia Romagna brought me this wine again, 5 years after after visiting his hometown for Christmas. Same wine, different vintage, same enjoyment.
The nose is made of cherry, pencil shavings, some soy sauce and a touch of smoke. The palate is delicious with a great acid drive, some delicious cherry juice notes all along, some width, some grippy mouthfeel that is well disrupted by a great tannic wall kicking in the rear. The finish is tannic, grippy with cherry notes and some oaky, smoky notes and a great umami touch. It's a great Sangiovese from outside of Tuscany and it paired with nice steaks cooked rare in butter (2 minutes on each side) by yours truly 😅 — 24 days ago
