Dark inky colored, full bodied, rich concentrated extracted fruit, aromatic,almost intense black cherry and black raspberry with notes of tobacco leaf, tea and hints of tar on a smooth silky tannin laced finish. This was super with dark chocolate and begged for a spicy Italian pasta!
90% Sangiovese, 10% Charbono from a ripasso process they use for this. So right off the bat this is a unique process. You wouldn't guess this is a ripasso wine, but it's just delicious. Big dark, cherry flavor with dryness to back it up. Definitely try this if you can.
