60% Sangiovese, 20% Ciliegiolo, 20% Syrah, vines 4 - 20 years, clay and Limestone and Silt with Galestro rocks. WOW this is fantastic. Light and perfect. The Syrah only accentuates the Sangiovese to my mind. This does not feel tired in any universe; it's pretty perfect. It does have some chocolate and rust, but there's so much bright fruit it's alive and fresh. Nose initially has waxy, B vitamin component, then goes slightly plummy followed with a big whallop of strawberry; leads to big pomegranate and leather on the palate. Goddamn I love old school Sangiovese.
