Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

In 1893, Luigi Cecchi set up his own business as a wine taster and broker. Ruby with concentrated fruit aromas and earthy spice. On the palate blackberry and blueberry flavors with garden herbs. Tannins are soft, medium finish ending with earthy character. Wine should be consumed now, no additional benefit from bottle aging.

Nice, quaffable. Fruit forward and in a quite modern style. I'm thinking a bit of cab or merlot might be in the mix..?

Leather, plums and nuts on the nose. Plums, fresh red berries, spices and solid tannins. Good balance.

Tannins of cherries and soil. Suggest to decant for a while, but the tannins change as you let it set. A stronger acidic finish.
