WINEMAKER’S NOTES:
A true Tuscan classic! Deep ruby color with garnet reflections and an elegant bouquet of leather, black cherries, licorice and plums; a medium to a full-bodied palate, rich in ripe red fruit, goût de terroir, subtle notes of vanilla and violet that are well-integrated with the soft tannins and silky texture. Firm backbone, perfect integration of acidity and fruit and a well-rounded, gentle finish.
TASTING NOTES:
Blackberry, blueberry and crushed-stone aromas follow through to a medium-bodied palate with lightly chewy tannins and dried lemon rind on the finish. Tangy and delicious.
