Tasting Notes

This wine is full-bodied and compact, yet lean and endowed with a pleasant minerality, the result of its cultivation on the white marl soils that dominate the southeast slopes of Montalcino. On the nose, it expresses itself as a symphony of balanced aromas, ranging from intense scents of blood oranges to fresh Mediterranean herbs. Each sip is rich, juicy, and dynamic, intriguing and fun, telling the story of a wine that will reveal many interesting facets of its personality over time.
