Orangey red rim. Young fresh aromas. Some rusticity. On the light side

2008 Vintage. Great wine but I found the Rosso Banfi better on this vintage... and at a fraction of the cost. This one was just a bit light for my tastes.

Needed several hours of decanting to open up. Fabulous bouquet. Cassis, red cherry, licorice, and blackberries. Full-bodied. I might cellar this a bit longer.

Complex, savoury with subtle power, a lovely wine.

Great wine. Really is Montalcino’s version of a white wine. Layers of fruit with tight tannic edges. A rose to put to rest. Look forward to enjoying more in a year or so. RIP Franco Biondi-Santi

Must first trip into the 2010 vintage. A real treat for the price when I bought it in Italy.
