Did You Know 60% Sangiovese, 20% Merlot, 20% Syrah, this Super Tuscan is intense with complex notes of cassis, cherries jam, plums and chocolate. It then fades into very clean flavors of tobacco, vanilla, eucalyptus and spice. The spicy notes, added by Syrah, exalts the sensations of red/black fruit and aromatic herbs given by Sangiovese, while the Merlot rounds the wine. Harmonic and well balanced, its fruity notes compliment the round and elegant tannins leaving a long and satisfying finish.
