A hot and early season interpreted with new agronomic precision. The vineyards benefitted from the major changes made during the 1990s with a greater density per hectare, more similar to that of the 1930s. The wine is now 100% Sangiovese and aging has been reduced to 18 months, always in barriques. This has a bold, ruby color and a mellow aroma of red fruit and sweet spice, while the mouthfeel is rich without being opulent with a nice acidity and velvety tannins. The finish is long.
