Written Notes

Medium intense colour with ruby. Rich, perfumed, ripe blackberry and cherry nose with  overwhelming heavy toasty bourbon oak aromas and touch of Mediterranean herbs. The nose reminds of classic Alicante Monastrell wines. The palate takes the mind easily to Australia and its shiraz wines. Full-bodied palate shows bitter sweet flavours of dark chocolate, ripe plums and black cherries. Gently oxidative mid-palate with ripe bit chewy cherry notes. Warming finish shows spices and touch of dried herbs. A big American style Sangiovese – surprisingly rich, sweet and toasty for traditional Sangiovese lovers, but a true "crowed pleaser" compared to classic chiantis. The wine is peaking in a year or two but will keep another 5 years for sure. No use to restore however, so drink now, but make sure to decant 4 hours before serving and serve it at 17-18C. At its best with various meat dishes such as roasted veal, baked partridge, fried Guinea Fowl served with Mediterranean spiced couscous. JL 88p (31/3/2020)
