(2024) Winemaker Alessandra Casini Bindi Sergardi is the 24th generation at this Tuscan estate which is a long term favourite of FromVineyardsDirect. I have enjoyed various wines of theirs in the past. This is mostly Sangiovese with a touch of Merlot, and spent three months in French oak barriques. Deep crimson, the nose has a seductive creaminess and touch of fudge character, some sweet tobacco spice and hint of floral lift is lovely too. Medium-bodied, there's a real juiciness at the core of this, bursting-ripe black and red berries, with a nice firm cedar touch underpinning, but that juiciness combines with pert acidity and a light but gravelly tannin for real freshness in the finish. A little star.
