CASTELLO DI GABBIANO |
| Extremely deep intense purple colour. Spicy, cedary, baked ripe plum-cherry nose with lots of sandalwood notes. Dry, medium to medium-full bodied, well structured, spicy, mocha-chocolate, baked plum-cherry flavours with a lingering, fairly high acid, cedary finish. This easy to drink, crowd-pleaser is a blend of approximately 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 20% Sangiovese has 13.5% alcohol and 8 g/L residual sugar. |

| TASTING NOTE: Plenty of fresh blackcurrant character as well as tons of crushed stones, violets, iodine and ink. Full-bodied, very grippy but structured in terms of tannins and fresh and minerally on the finish. Made from a blend of cabernet, merlot, sangiovese. Drink now.
