TASTING NOTES

Powerful but refreshing, a lovely interplay between the aromatic lift of Sangiovese and the darker flavours of the Cabernet Sauvignon. Wild cherry, sweet tobacco, liquorice, graphite, dried herbs and menthol wrap around polished tannins with the impression of crushed-stones and oyster-shells.
