What a nose: a mixture of dark peony and violet petals, with hints of fresh and dried cherry, reaching directly to the brain on a higher note of polished wood. The same aromatic fascination immediately manifests itself on the palate as well: cherry and fragrant petals envelop and cushion the tannins, fine but definitely intense. An extremely serious wine, a delightful counterpoint between a composed structure and a flowing, almost undulating elegance, a severe and indulgent wine at the same time. Every nuance of perfume is illuminated by the electric freshness of Sangiovese. Even aged, when more earthy and savory notes are revealed, its floral and silky charm conquers the palate, mind and heart together (Anne Krebiehl MW).
