Crafted only in exceptional years, this monumental expression of 100% Sangiovese underwent extended maceration and was meticulously matured for 36 months in large French oak barrels followed by resting in unglazed concrete. In the glass, it pours a luminous, deep ruby-red color with classic garnet reflections. The intricately layered nose unveils captivating aromas of ripe black cherries, wild plums, and crushed violets, beautifully interwoven with sophisticated undertones of cedar, graphite, sweet tobacco, iron, and crushed stones. On the palate, the wine demonstrates remarkable power, elegance, and finesse, delivering a deeply concentrated core of dark fruit perfectly balanced by a driving acidity and formidable yet polished tannins, culminating in an extraordinarily long, persistent, and savory finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFood Pairing:\u003c\/b\u003e Pairs beautifully with braised short ribs, robust wild boar ragù, roasted lamb, grilled Florentine steaks, truffle-infused dishes, and aged Parmigiano-Reggiano.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e96 Points - James Suckling\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVery subtle blueberry, floral, black truffle and cherry aromas follow through to a full body, firm and silky tannins and a savory and delicious finish.
