The vintage and five years have seen to some evolution but the tannins remain and persist, firm, grippy and intense....

This CC is maturing very nicely. Stylistically, this leans toward the lighter, crisper model of Sangiovese, replete with sour cherry fruit, currants and earth. Oak is but a mere enhancement. The finish is long with fine acidity and tannin. Drinking very nicely now and should hold for a few more years. Tasted May 2019.

90% Sangiovese and 10% Canaiolo. Highly aromatic with savoury, meaty, dark berry, earth, and spice. It's medium-full bodied with supple, rounded tannins that are smooth and have a dusty texture. Juicy acids. Lovely aroma replays. Excellent finish length that is a touch warm. Enjoy over the next 3-5 years. Tasted June/2018.
