(2023) A blend of 80% Sangiovese, with ancient indigenous Tuscan varieties including Abrusco, Pugnitello, Malvasia Nera, Ciliegiolo, and Mazzese making up the remaining 20%. The wines was aged for 24 months, 50% in large Slavonian oak casks , 50% in 225-and 500-litre French oak. Some lovely bloody and earthy, leathery notes here, but not at the expense of fruit. That is sweet on the nose and infused with tobacco and perfumed, incense and fresh cherry notes. Lovely mouthfeel, medium-bodied and juicy, then a very strict tannin and acid axis shears through the flesh of the mid-palate. This is so grippy at this stage, and needs time - perhaps five years - but has great concentration and structure.
