Wine Enthusiast

“Made from Sangiovese grown according to biodynamic viticulture principles, this wine is bursting with aromas of black cherries, raspberries, and blue flowers, accented by notes of garrigue and a hint of milk chocolate. The ripe fruit is balanced by round tannins and well-controlled acidity. ” (Wine Enthusiast 2014 – Kerin O’Keefe) Exceptional value for the price!
