Big, plush and modern, this blockbuster Riserva delivers full and generous tones of black fruit, molasses, spice and pipe tobacco. It great length fueled by polished tannins and chewy depth. From an organic vineyard about 10 miles from Florence.

Made with organically farmed fruit, this blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Colorino opens with an inky, dark color and savory aromas of ripe fruit, prune, plum, leather, tobacco and exotic spice. It’s firm and well structured, with a velvety feel to the tannins.

This shows aromas of candied fruit and honey, with zesty touches of dried herb, citrus and spice at the back. The mouthful is velvety smooth, and the finish is long.

This opens with a meaty aroma of cured beef and shows a ripe, dark and almost gritty quality of fruit. Ripe berry notes continue on the palate, proving to be both extracted and a touch on the sweet side.

A light and informal expression of Sangiovese with a very attractive price tag, this easy-going effort would pair perfectly with sausage pizza or homemade pasta sauce. There are touches of bitter almond and bright berry on the finish.
