The Story
This exceptional, single-vineyard Tuscan red opens with a plush, ripe bouquet of dark spiced cherries, wild blackberries, and leather, beautifully intertwined with high-toned floral notes, citrus peel, and woody spice. On the medium-bodied palate, it strikes a wonderful balance between richness and energy, showcasing a concentrated core of pure dark red fruit lifted by a bright, citrusy acidity. Structured with fine, sandy, and tightly knit noble tannins, it delivers a deeply elegant and complex mouthfeel that transitions into a long, beautifully polished, and savory finish.
Food Pairing: A magnificent selection for celebratory dinners, pairing flawlessly with fresh pasta in a long-simmered wild boar ragù, truffle-shaved mushroom risotto, roasted rack of lamb, or Bistecca alla Fiorentina.
92 Points - Wine Enthusiast
The nose features both the earthiness of potting soil and crushed rocks and the floral nuance of rose petals and bing cherries. On the palate, orange zest lifts up the cherry element, but chalky tannins and zippy acid underscore an enduring, metallic earthiness to maintain balance.
