Saturday, May 23, 2015 - This needs more time, but has outstanding potential. Initial pour shows really dark fruit with sweet cassis, black raspberry, and some floral hints. With air and a bit of warming it becomes more classic Sangiovese with rose petal, tar, and black cherry. The fruit remains a little darker than the regular Montevertine and there is definitely more depth and development potential. I think this wine is fantastic, but currently needs at least 4-5 more years and will probably be peaking in 8-10.
