88 Points

Friday, December 28, 2012 - As always, Il Sasso is such a nice and pleasant drinking wine.
Lacking a bit of previous vintages phenomenal balanced fruitiness that is one of the reasons this wine is normally so lovely and flirty. (such as the really great 2006 for example!)
Missing some of the Tuscan trademarks in this vintage.
The vine consists of 70% Sangiovese, 20% Cabernet Franc & the remaining 10% is Merlot.
Each varietal is vinified separately, and stored in French barriques before mixed and finally bottled after additional time in barrel.
Still, very nice wine and has a good qpr.
May be better with aditional cellar time.
I hope so.
