Decanter: 95 Punkte
So fragrant, like smelling perfume with such clarity and focus to the aromas; pink roses and fresh and ripe strawberries, such Sangiovese signature. Sharp and thrilling on the palate, lifted strawberry sweetness straight away with great acidity that keeps the freshness but the fruit is also cool and well presented. Tannins are fine and give a sleek frame. This is elegant and refined, a nice sense of completeness and energy. Bright, buzzy, sharp, clean, tangy and light on its feet. Totally drinkable and enjoyable, a touch sour with bite and bitterness on the finish, but altogether a great glass of wine with plenty to like. Ageing 30 months in 500, 700 and 2,500l oak casks followed by additional time in concrete vats and 18 months in bottle prior to release.
