The Story
Deep ruby red in color, this Carmignano offers aromas of dark berries, dried herbs, cedar, cigar box, and sweet spice. The palate is medium- to full-bodied with broad, succulent fruit, velvety tannins, and excellent balance. Notes of blackberry, cherry, tobacco, and crushed stone carry through a long, textured finish.
Food Pairing: Pairs best with grilled steaks, roast lamb, braised beef, pasta with rich meat sauces, aged cheeses, and Tuscan cuisine.
92 Points - James Suckling
A lot of spices, dried herbs and hints of cigar box and cedar on the nose, with a deep dark-fruited character. Medium- to full-bodied with ripe, velvety tannins and broad, succulent fruit. Dry and textured at the end, with hints of tobacco and crushed stones. Drink or hold.
90 Points - Wine Spectator
Rich and smooth, offering cherry, black currant and blackberry flavors at its center, accented with earth and wild herbs. A bit chunky yet remains balanced and long. Drink now through 2030.
