| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
ANTINORI |
| Very deep intense purple colour. Attractive, intense, gently spicy, complex, expansive, fairly bright, still youthful, ripe plum-red-cherry nose with some sandalwood-cedar notes. Dry, medium-full bodied, harmonious, fairly extracty, intense, gently complex, ripe plum-cassis flavours with a lingering, elegant, bright, sandalwood-cedar-tinged, well structured finish. Geat mouthfeel with great potential. This blend of 90% Sangiovese and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon has 13.5% alcohol and under 3 g/L residual sugar. It's fermented in stainless steel vats for seven days and then transferred to French and Hungarian oak barriques for approximately one year before it is bottled and aged for an additional twelve months. |

| TASTING NOTE: This ripe style is fresh and harmonious, delivering plum, cherry and boysenberry fruit, with accents of earth, iron and eucalyptus. Supple in texture, with a beautifully integrated structure and long, complex aftertaste. Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Best from 2026 through 2043. Score - 95 (Bruce Sanderson, winespectator.com, Oct. 31, 2024) |
