The Story
This exceptional Super Tuscan from the highly acclaimed 2016 vintage displays a deep, concentrated ruby red color. The bouquet is incredibly complex and expressive, opening with rich aromas of ripe red and black fruits, beautifully layered with sophisticated notes of vanilla, crushed black pepper, and a distinctive hint of flinty graphite. On the palate, it exhibits a voluptuous, full-bodied structure where a dense fruit core is masterfully balanced by the lively acidity inherent to the Maremma Toscana region. The mouthfeel is plush and structured, supported by full, beautifully ripe tannins that carry into a powerful, long, and remarkably elegant finish showcasing subtle undertones of velvet chocolate.
Food Pairing: Outstanding alongside robust dishes like classic Italian Bistecca alla Fiorentina, slow-cooked osso buco, grilled Tuscan wild boar, or rich risottos prepared with seasonal porcini mushrooms.
