It’s also very highly rated on Vivino with an average score of 4.1 out of 5
With a deep claret red colour, this is an elegant and sumptuous wine, where floral notes mingle with black cherries, plum, raspberry, balsamic, pepper, cedar and spices as a prelude to a dense and enveloping sip. On the palate there is blackberry, cherries, earthy leather, fig and brazil nut. Very full bodied. Elegant but powerful tannins, tamed by oak ageing with balanced fresh acidity and well integrated oak, makes this a wonderful quaffing red as well as with food. This is without a doubt a very special wine.
Food pairings, Veal, Poultry, Beef (spaghetti bolognese or spaghetti with meatballs), Tuscan-style sausages and beans, Roast lamb with rosemary and garlic or aged cheeses
