This Sangiovese takes some coaxing to reveal savoury, earthy, and woodsy aromas nuanced with hints of dark red cherry, and red plum. It's full-bodied and dry on the firmly structured palate with lovely, intensely flavoured replays. It has a pleasantly chalky, grippy textured mouthfeel, along with crisp, well-structured acidity. Chocolate, mocha, woodsy, and underbrush notes linger on the long, grippy, and well-structured finish. Tasted Oct. 2026.
