Powerful oak flavors, silky tannins and black fruit. Ultimately makes a great Sunday evening wine!

Very nice bottle, starting to lose that standard cherry flavor and turning more earthy and floral. I guess 600 years of winemaking knowledge really helps make kick ass vino.

Lovely dusty tannins against almost barolo-y aromas of rose petals and cassis.

Of course this wine is good looking over Lago Di Como....however-the wine is actually very nice with the beef and polenta with truffle for dinner

The 2007 is drinking beautifully right now and this is a very good wine in a very good vintage. On the nose it seems like I am in Tuscany with notes of cherry, licorice, pepper, leather and earth. The taste is incredible, typically soft Sangiovese mouth feel, satin-like, and flavors of cherry, spice and volcanic rock. The finish is long (really long). It's impossible not to love this wine!
