Feels flawed, apple juice like. Gets better with food (salat).

1/10. This label art—showing an estate house, in monochrome—directly signifies the experience of drinking the wine in the bottle. No interpretive experiments with infection are to be found here. And, no obscuring interventions/processes for that matter. Just elegantly fallen flavors, of blue-fruited Sangiovese, and ripe, stone flavored, determined tannins. Balsam roots and cobbles. Insurgent fabric of stranded acidity. Until I learn more about it I should guess it can be depleted at the rate of one bottle per year, to 2034.

24 hour later, certainly nothing is gained.

843 days in a cellar improved this wine decisively. Gone is the mask of juvenile, musky grape sensation. Now, it strides over twine sap and stone flavor, gathering organization in its argument toward savory briar and petrichor. Remarkable transparency of flavor; a weightless chassis of cherry cordial; teased on the edges with herb smoke; gripping tea tannins; mouthwatering; quenching, nervous acidity. The effects of its palate impact fill in a way that coincidentally heightens bouquet to a dizzying extreme. Only at this point do I discover shadowy projections manifest in pastis, bruised strawberry, chicory, and cocoa. Very fresh; drink now-2028+.

This wine far exceeded my expectations already upon opening with a highly potent blast of complex aromas. The taste was on the same level. Of course, this was good with pizza, but due to its remarkable quality, it could be consumed just by sipping alone. Outstandingly good, especially bearing in mind its sub-20€ price.

Sangiovese Study at Planque (Planque London UK): Nose of cherry, flowers, chocolate, grasses, herbs and earthy licorice. Overt time the cherry is restrained and the dried and green grasses become more prominent. The palate is chalky and round with a great acidic balance. There is a taste like chocolate covered cherries here. Smoky and savory notes as well. Very nice.

A great accompaniment with a big family style dinner event in Lucca. Universally liked red with lots of fruit flavors. Could be a great everyday wine - not sure if available in US.

Malheureusement pas de notes
Après plusieurs jours.
Floral à souhait, au point d'équilibre acidité-sucrosité.
Digeste, faible alcool (bravo!)
Un coup de coeur.
Mieux noté la prochaine bouteille.

Heavy fruit on the nose. Garnet in color. Even though this is 70% Sangiovese, the Merlot (20%) dominates with a mouthful of berries & ripe fruit. The Syrah adds a bit of spice and the Sangiovese provides a hint of licorice and some earthy qualities. The tannins & acid are moderate and in check. This is a unique wine and is put together quite nicely. Drinking well young, but will age nicely in the next few years

Vin décanté 2 h et cela lui a fait le plus grand bien !!! Arômes de cerise,de terre,de fruits secs de belle intensité.Le palais offre un très bel équilibre entre acidité,tanins et alcool.C'est structuré sans être puissant mais surtout raffiné dans un millésime très coté en Toscane.A point et pour 10 bonnes années encore

Very approachable after PnP from the cellar. Medium-bodied, ruby in the glass. Light sediment at the end, only 13% alcohol and great with our pasta dish.

Garnet in the glass. Red fruit on the nose. Solid tannic structure. Favorite of the day and of the weekend. We purchased 3 vintages of this wine for shipping so we can do a vertical tasting with friends.

Refreshing in both heat and when it got chilly outside. Lots of mineral, stone, and earth. Low on fruit but a tad of lemon.

This is perfect to drink right now. Punches way above its weight. It stands up to big boys like Flaccianello della Pieve at a fraction of the price. The fruit is outstanding and the tannins are soft.

But drink it now.

Deep ruby color. Tobacco and baked dark berries on the nose. Medium body, high acid, and medium-plus tannins that really the front roof of your mouth. Dark cocoa, blackberries, and good spiciness mid-palate. Nice value at this price point.
