Blend of primarily Sangiovese (70%) along with equal parts Sagrantino (15%) and Merlot (15%). Medium ruby color with purple highlights and a garnet rim. Aromas of black fruits, dark chocolate, violets, leather, forest floor and dried herbs. Black cherry, cassis and pomegranate flavors with additional hints of tobacco, black licorice and wet soil. Medium earthy/spicy finish and a grainy texture. Some grip and power but nicely balanced. Pleasant rustic quality. Solid value.

Had with a beef ragu over noodles. Some dark cherry/berry flavors along with a dry, tannic finish. Paired really well with a traditional ragu. Would buy again.

Very dark garnet-purple with a nose of red & dark fruit with some wet earth & leather. Medium body, on the dry side with flavors of plum & blackberry. A not too acidic on the finish.
