Tasted this vintage 2 years ago and such a pleasant surprise that it still doesnt show any signs of tiredness. Made from Sangiovese based blend with 15% Merlot and 5% CS. Aged in FR oak for 17 months. Deep ruby colour, garnet rim. Intense and perfumed aroma of black cherries, plums, balsamic, tobacco, leather, cedar, vanilla, forest floor, smoky prunes. Medium+ body, lively, smoky and earthy with rich and polished tannins, high and vibrant well integrated acidity, long and slightly warming finish.

Continues to drink well, no real change from latest tasting note/s. Smooth, medium/full bodied, well integrated tannins. Hint of savoury, earth, forest floor palate. Couple of bottles left, revisit next year.

Dark ruby. Black cherries, prunes, raisins, kirsch nose. Similar palate with some added toast, maybe cedar. Still drinking well but I think at it’s peak and needs to be drunk over the next couple of years.

Smell of cedar and taste of black cherries. My bottle was prime now. Could maybe be cellared for another 2-3 years but drink now
