***#46 out of 100 in the WS Top 100 of 2017***
Bright, delicate and vibrant, with berry and floral flavors. Accents of earth, tobacco and spice add interest as they linger on the finish. Well-rounded and long. Drink now through 2023.
A very expressive nose of ripe red cherries, liquorice, hints of tobacco spice and mint. The wine itself is very pure and elegant - no hint of having been overworked - this is fresh, juicy and fabulous now although it does have guts and stuffing so will keep too, but why wait? The perfect manifestation of ready-to-drink Sangiovese. Delicious.
