Tasting Notes
A great food-friendly Tuscan red made from Sangiovese (the family’s own BBS11 clone used in Biondi Santi Brunello) and softened with the addition of 20% Merlot. The vines are grown in hilly zone of Scansano. To highlight the natural fruit notes of the grapes, the wine sees no wood and is aged in stainless steel vats for 10 months prior to bottling.
This wine opens with a bouquet highlighting red fruits along with notes of spice and wild flowers. On the palate, the wine is medium bodied, smooth and soft, balancing Sangiovese delicacy with the roundness of Merlot. The finish is quite dry with noticeable tannins that are nicely extended. Drink now and over the next 4 years.
