  李子、樱桃、香草、丁香、雪茄和些许的泥土气息，少许的强壮热感和轻飘飘的甜美感在口中略显分裂。拥有并不高挑但足够明亮的酸度，单宁成熟、丰富，未来质感可期。各种元素保持了中正的平衡，但眼下尚未能理出一条清晰的主线，因此显得个性比较平庸。

  Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim. This 7 year old is showing a great nose now.
  
  Dry on the palate with medium plus acidity.
  
  Showing red and black fruits with wood, earth, herbs, spices, wild flowers, chocolates, leather, tobacco leaf, dark coffee and black pepper.
  
  This is a delicious, yet very young, Sangiovese from Chianti. Nicely balanced, powerful and tangy.
  
  This 2016 vintage holds great promise for aging gracefully over the next two decades. However, at present, it has yet to fully reach its full potential. Would be nice to revisit it in 5 years.
  
  Would have been nice to have it decanted for a few hours, but it wasn't my call. I had it blind, so it is what it is.
  
  I paired it with a Charcuterie board of meats and cheeses.
  
  100% Sangiovese grapes.
  
  14% alcohol by volume.
  
  92 points.
  
  $350.

  17/16/09. Whereas the 17 wasn't offering much pleasure, the 16 was a hedonistic delight. Of course not close to ready but so much joyful, plump fruit with refined edges already apparent. Primary but harmonious and lots of fun. Still going strong on night two. Better in a decade+

  Sangiovese study (Chicago, IL): Killer nose, and readily my favourite of the flight. Sweet, perfumed red fruit, with a slight herbal element as well, with an intensity that the 2017 just doesn't match at all. A bit cooler in stature than the ripe and flashy 2009, this is obviously very young, and in that stern tannic structure on the palate, this mirrors the 2017 quite a bit. But there's an added level of complexity and aromaticity to this wine that works brilliantly here. One for the ages, so they say.

  Clear, ruby and medium intensity in the glass. Had a clean red fruit nose (at first pour a little prune as well) with some balsamic, a touch of clove and vanilla, stone dust and herbal notes. The mouth was well structured with grainy tannins throughout the palate, and a medium plus acidity. The length was significant. Very delicious wine.
