"A tight, refined red with a character of plum and light chocolate. Medium-bodied, with refined tannins and a savory finish. It shows elegance and refinement. Pure Sangiovese. Best after 2020. (James Suckling 2019) - Buyer's tip: after opening, taste it again 24 to 48 hours later, and this bottle will reveal a whole new side to its personality and profile: magical!
