A mature Sangiovese... exceptionally leathery nose and palate. Velvety tannins and acidic intensity which is not pointed or harsh. The fruit is waaaaaayyyyy back in the mix here.
This wine, while interesting and still drinking well, is not really my thing. I have a 2016 of this and look forward to it’s fresher fruit.

Found this better than Galloni did. Not at all fleeting even at this age. Light red berries, a "clean" earthiness.
