 Tasted by Callum's Corkers on 2/19/2018 & rated 92 points: brief notes only, tasted at a Decanter Awards event, London 2015

Won a Gold there. I'm not surprised.

Big soft nose.

Wow, couldn't spit this one; rich all through but then finished Dry; complex and classy; floury; has more potential, is not mature at 6 yrs old.

RR £30.00.....bargain. (2562 views)
 Tasted by LWI on 1/21/2017 & rated 92 points: Blind. Earthy, tons of dark fruit, complex; violent tannin, asphalt, high extraction – but cool fruit, highly concentrated. Much of everything. Far too young. (3106 views)
 Tasted by Ben Christiansen on 10/22/2016: Doesn't taste corked but it certainly isn't showing much (3284 views)
 Tasted by Ben Christiansen on 5/2/2016: So the new winemaker is just finishing these vintages. It will be interesting to see what comes when he has the wine all the way through. Aromatic and dramatic and concentrated in kinda every way. Quite earthy. (3366 views)
 Tasted by Ben Christiansen on 3/2/2016: More smoke and cedar than the '08. Shows much more oak right now. Palate is there with much black berry and fruit. Caterina says '09 for here is the vintage of the fruit. She further notes time for Sangiovese is so important. Time in bottle is so important. In bottle and in wood.

This is 10 hl barrels in tonno used 1-3 years. New wine maker which is the same winemaker as Terre Nere. (3398 views)
 Tasted by bacchus of knockholt on 7/7/2015 & rated 88 points: Smoky nose with oak and cedar and dark chocolate on the nose. The palate is silky smooth with big, rich sweet fruit, good acidity and with a chestnut finish. Good. (1720 views)
 Tasted by "Rhône Rider" on 1/15/2015 & rated 89 points: Dark red. Cherries, graphite, wood. Concentrated, well structured, elegant fresh. Long finish. (796 views)
 Tasted by quaglia on 2/16/2014 & rated 82 points: Anteprima Vino Nobile Montepulciano - 25 TN inside! (Montepulciano (Si)): 100% Sangiovese.
Correct, but without personality. (1881 views)

Sangiovese

SANGIOVESE: (Pronounced "sahn-joh-vhe-se").
Sangiovese - Italy's claim to fame, the pride of Tuscany. Traditionally made, the wines are full of cherry fruit, earth, and cedar. It produces Chianti (Classico), Rosso di Montalcino, Brunello di Montalcino, Rosso di Montepulciano, Montefalco Rosso, and many others. Sangiovese is also the backbone in many of the acclaimed, modern-styled "Super-Tuscans", where it is blended with Bordeaux varietals (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc) and typically aged in French oak barrels, resulting a wine primed for the international market in the style of a typical California cabernet: oaky, high-alcohol, and a ripe, jammy, fruit-forward profile.[16]

Semi-classic grape grown in the Tuscany region of Italy. Used to produce the Chianti and other Tuscan red wines. Has many clonal versions, two of which seem to predominate. The Sangiovese Grosso clone Brunello variety is used for the dark red, traditionally powerful and slow-maturing "Brunello di Montalcino" wine. The other is the Sangiovese Piccolo, also known under the historical synonym name Sangioveto, used for standard Chianti Classico DOC wines. Old vine derived wine is often used in the better versions, needing several years ageing to reach peak. A third clone, Morellino, is used in a popular wine blend with the same name found in the southern part of the province. Recent efforts in California with clones of this variety are very promising, producing medium-bodied reds with rich cherry or plumlike flavors and aromas. Among the available clonal versions are R6 and R7, derived from the Montalcino region of Italy, having average productivity/ripening and producing small berries on medium size clusters. R10 and R24 are well-recommended. R23, listed as deriving from the Emilia-Romagna region, has good vigor with medium-small clusters with earlier ripening. R102 derives from the Montepulciano region and reported to have average vigor with moderate productivity that results in higher sugar levels and good acidity from medium-small berries on medium-small clusters. Has synonym name of Nielluccio where grown in Corsica.
