There is no "dab" of Merlot to sweeten up the flavors, just ripe, plumy Sangiovese.
- Notes of tobacco, licorice, cedar and red fruit on a medium bodied frame with notable detail and nuance in expression makes this a wonderfully superb wine.

Voluptuous, bold and robust. This wine walks a fine line between balanced elegance and super ripeness. A must with roasted wild game and meats; it is the perfect wine for rich cheeses and foods.

- This is a huge wine, deep red violet with dark fruit aromas, and firm structure. It has a full-bodied, long finish. Excellent with richly spiced dishes, strong cheeses, roast or grilled meats, tuna, salmon and chocolate.
