Italian Red
$849.99
Ripe raspberry and black cherry are layered with violets, wild rosemary, white pepper and a mineral, iron-like note. The palate is medium-bodied and elegant, adding amaro, clove, mint and orange zest around pure Sangiovese fruit. Firm, ripe tannins give the wine structure without sacrificing its sleek line. Decant generously and serve with bistecca, braised beef, wild boar or aged Pecorino.
