Nose

Light scents of potpourri blend with raspberry, plum, sun dried tomato plus hints of mild herb, graphite and beef carpaccio.

Palate

A very pleasant and balanced mouthfeel delivers soft tannins and medium acidity, washing the palate with integrated flavors of black cherry, plum, red currant and basalt. Though 100% Sangiovese, it tastes as if blended with Bordeaux.
