It was a bit tighter than I expected. Very classic Sangiovese from Tuscany. Nose is a touch smoky and tobacco’s subtle, but slightly floral. Cherry front notes with a very velvety mild palette and nice long finish. Tannins are muted but still structured after a few hours open.
I left the last pour open overnight by accident and it’s still very good. The mid pallet was sold so that’s why I think it will still get better.
It’s a great wine

Good but not great. Too much oak on the wine for my taste, plus the flavor profile was relatively generic. Didn't scream sangiovese to me, but had some fleeting moments of typicity on day 2. Decanted for 2 hours on day 1, which didn't do much, then enjoyed the remainder of the bottle over the following two days. Overall a decent drink, but you get the feeling this could have been a lot better.

Great on opening, better after 60+ minutes of air. Drink now with decant or hold.
