The style is characterised by the striking elegance and intensity of the best wines from this zone, combining the power of Montalcino with the elegance that comes from vineyards situated at a high altitude. Dark with morello cherry, currants and cinnamon perfumes on the nose. On the palate it has a lovely balance between ripe, silky tannins, softened by cask and bottle ageing and melting, spiced red and black berry fruit characters. There is a an attractive savoury note on the long finish.
