Winery Review: Produced exclusively from grapes grown on the estate and showcases winemaker Alessio Carli's talent with the grape. Growing up in Tuscany, Alessio watched his father make Chianti and later honed his skills at the renowned Badia a Coltibuono. Our Estate Sangiovese tastes of cranberry and intense Bing cherry with undertones of anise and a lingering finish. the depth and ultimate companion to great Italian cuisine. Typical of this varietal, our Sangiovese vines have matured and we have been rewarded by increasingly rich fruit.
My Review: Nice red color. Has a very strong fruity aroma. The red is very dry (not as dry as the Sacred Stone) and has hits of fruit. I did want more to come through but there was not a lot of taste after the the first sip. An ok wine for me.
