"Leuchtendes Rubinrot. In der Nase nach Pflaumen und Amarenakirschen, dazu Holunderbeeren, Minze, erinnert entfernt an rotbackenem Apfel. Am Gaumen saftig, strahlend, breitet sich mit tollem Spiel und viel Spannung über die Zunge, leicht salzig, finessenreiches und langes Finish."

"Startet mit viel Esprit auf Noten von roten Beeren und Blüten; im Mund frisch mit akzentuierter Säure, aber auch gut strukturiert mit feinkörnigem Tannin, endet auf Noten von roten Waldfrüchten."

"Complex and intriguing, asking for air as it was designed with a light reduction. Slowly emerging in the glass notes of red plums, black tea leaves, crushed tobacco, blood orange and mandarin rind. Medium to full bodied, fine grain light tannins and a balanced finale of remarkable personality. Drink now or hold."

"Subdued aromas suggesting underbrush, leather and camphor mingle together in the glass along with a whiff of cassis. The rather syrupy palate is evolved in terms of fruit richness, offering dried black cherry, prune, grilled bell pepper and coffee bean alongside close-grained tannins. Drink 2021-2024.

"Sattes, dunkel leuchtendes Rubinrot. In der Nase nach Waldbeermarmelade, satten Kirschen und einem Hauch Brombeeren, zarte Holzwürze. Am Gaumen mit klarer, leuchtender Frucht, breitet sich schön über die Zunge, spannt einen weiten Fächer auf, leicht salzig, anhaftend und lange."

"È decadente nel profilo principale questo giovane Chianti Classico che si racconta con fiori rossi appassiti, pietra bianca sbriciolata e radice di ginseng. Il sottofondo racconta di liquirizia bagnata e terra umida. Corpo pieno, succoso e concentrato nel profilo centrale mostra dei tannini maturi perfettamente fusi nella matrice ed un finale di lodevole qualità. Bevi ora o invecchia."

"Made from Sangiovese blended withCabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, this opens with aromas of sawdust, oak, exotic spice and a whiff of black currant.
