A blend of 85% Sangiovese and 15% Merlot that matures in large barrels. The wine has a dark, garnet-ruby color and an aroma that at first seems a bit limited but then reveals its earthiness with notes of tar, earth and orange peel on a background of blueberry jam. The rich mouthfeel has a juicy attack, tannins that are slightly rustic and a bitter and dry finish. An excellent wine, perhaps a tad evolved aromatically.
