This Sangiovese, a classic Tuscan varietal is bright crimson red in colour with aromas of dusty cherries, charcuterie and hints of earth and cinnamon spice, the palate is medium bodied with tight savoury flavours, well balanced acidity and chalky textured tannins. The wine will benefit from decanting and being served at a cool room temperature. Drink now, or hold out until 2016.
