100% sancgiovese classically rich Ricasoli wine. Rich fresh cherry flavors with still ample tannins. Delicious now and for years ahead.

As good maybe even a tad better than last time. Has moved towards that Burgundian dimension of Sangiovese. Nice, great PV.

Sorry for the challenging angle, but this was easy drinking. Great Sangiovese in a smooth as silk package, deep woodsy notes, sour cherry and vanilla. Will age. Seek out, great PV.

@ £31 a good food wine that paired very well but the £23 Antinori had the edge on QPR (see other review)

🐑 Paired with slow cooked shoulder of lamb in mixed wild creamy mushroom sauce

🍇 100% Sangiovese

🍷 Cherry ruby red

👃 Red & black cherries covered in cocoa w/ a touch of smoke, red currant & earth

👄 Med body in med+ tart acidity of vibrant red cherry & currant & slight dry tannin

🎯 Med red fruit finish

Höstig svampskog, kryddighet i form av viol och vitpeppar! Mörka bär! Cederträ!
