93 Points James Suckling
A very pretty Bolgheri red with currant, chocolate and hazelnut aromas and flavors. It’s full and layered with firmness and freshness. Tight at the end, with a lovely texture and finesse to the tannins. Drink or hold.

Color: Deep ruby red with violet reflections.

Bouquet: Red berries, blueberries and plum jam are followed by hints of tobacco and licorice.

Taste: The wine is well rounded, with velvety tannins and a persistent finish.
