  Another 2 years in the cellar is the only set back from scoring a perfect 100.

  Tasted at The Great Italian Walkabout, host by Tenuta Park90.
  
  Didn’t have time for the wine tasting notes. Only the scores.

  Jesper Hedegaard tasting. Very concentrated, high tannins, very long and quite balanced. Lots of oak. Not at all typical for Sangiovese - but very likable

  PnP. Color is deep garnet. On the nose: Cherry, earth, rose, hints of licorice and tar. On the palate: Sour black Cherry, tar, dusty tannins, rose and forest floor, hint of vanilla as well. Needs time to open up and time to age but it’s clearly very good and worth seeking out.

  A very attractive price in a small restaurant in Castellina in Chianti made this a must try. Still very tight and full of potential. Impressive concentration, balance, and depth. Definitely needs a good 1-2 hour decant and food if drinking right now. There are a lot of layers that will unfurl with time and take this wine to another dimension. I recommend cellaring for 5+ years. It should drink well for a couple of decades after that.
