 Tasted by nzinkgraf on 5/10/2024: Day 2. Medium minus ruby color. Rose, cherry, rainwater aromas. More elegant than other generous experiences of some other vintages. Son of Federico is now the winemaker. Very nuanced, charming and structured. Some soy and sandalwood on the palate. (118 views)
 Tasted by hfc on 1/13/2024 & rated 91 points: 1st impression: leather and roasted nuts/oak
2nd day: oak notes gone. Balsamic, leather and quite a lot of earthiness. Sweet fruits as well.
Not bad to drink now. Better let sit for a few more years. (400 views)
 Tasted by Euge67 on 11/13/2023 & rated 88 points: Trovare dei Chianti buoni è sempre difficile.
Questo non era male con più di una sfaccettatura gustativa.
Il prezzo in enoteca un filo alto, ma mi ha dato qualche soddisfazione. (467 views)
 Tasted by Vinnut on 11/1/2023 & rated 91 points: Medium-dark ruby in color. Full, fragrant & attractive of ripe fruit aromas of cherries, strawberries & plums with overtones of earthy/dusty & floral notes of roses, leather, herbs, spices, anise, minerals & a hint of cedar in the background. Medium-full bodied with a very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of cherries, cranberries & mulberries with spices, herbs, minerals, oak & a touch of oak/vanilla. Long lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present with decanting & extended airing but will continue to develop further with additional aging. (529 views)

Sangiovese Blend

Sangiovese blend is used in CellarTracker for Italian wines to represent wines predominantly made of Sangiovese and blended with traditional Italian grapes. It is different than SuperTuscan which is a blend of Sangiovese with non-traditional (eg Bordeaux) varieties, often in closer to equal portions. For example, Chianti is at least 80% Sangiovese and will always be listed Sangiovese blend.
