Tasting Notes

Vinous Ian d'Agata - 01 Sep 16
Fully saturated ruby. Very ripe aromas of dark fruit, sweet spices and minerals, complicated by hints of tar and leather. Then surprisingly soft-textured, with a dense core of ripe dark berries, mocha and spicy coffee flavors. Powerful but seamless tannins nicely frame the ripe fruit flavors on the long bright, savory finish.

Tuscany

Tuscany, a renowned wine region in central Italy, is famous for its high-quality Sangiovese-based wines. Key styles include Chianti, with vibrant acidity and red fruit flavours; Chianti Classico, known for greater depth; and Brunello di Montalcino, prized for its rich, full-bodied character and ageing potential. Tuscany also produces prestigious Super Tuscan wines that blend Sangiovese with international varietals like Cabernet Sauvignon. Top producers are Antinori, for Tignanello; Castello di Ama, for Chianti Classico; and Biondi-Santi, for Brunello.
