Sommelier's Tasting Notes

This wine is a delightful balance of power and finesse:

• Appearance: A deep, mature ruby red with a subtle garnet rim, indicative of its aging potential.
• Aroma: The nose is expansive, presenting layers of sweet violet, dark cherry, and a whisper of earthy forest floor, neatly framed by sophisticated notes of fine oak.
• Taste: Full-bodied and velvety on the palate, the wine showcases a beautiful harmony between the bright Sangiovese acidity and the supple, well-integrated tannins. A persistent finish underscores its premium quality.

Ideal Food Pairings & Decanting

A versatile wine, perfect for a grand dinner or a Sunday roast. Decanting for 30 minutes is recommended to open up its complex bouquet. Serve at 16-18°C.

• Recommended Pairings: Traditional Mushroom Ragù on Polenta, Slow-cooked Cottage Pie, Chargrilled Lamb Chops, or a selection of mature English Cheddar and hard Italian cheeses.
