"Made from Sangiovese grown according to biodynamic viticulture principles, this wine is loaded with aromas of black cherry, raspberry and blue flower accented by hints of garrigue and a touch of milk chocolate. The ripe fruit is balanced by round tannins and controlled acidity." (Wine Enthusiast 2014 - Kerin O'Keefe) Exceptional value for money!
