Absolutely charming.
Notes of mineral, lemon, pine oil, smoke, wild honey, hazelnuts and roasted spice are lifted with ripe guava and melon aromas. The same melon and guava appear on the palate with lemon curds, and sweet spiced nuts. Excellent restraint and persistence, good minerality and acidity to keep it all in check.
Chic.

This charming blend of Sangiovese and Montepulciano from the Adriatic Marche region of Italy offers aromas of tart cherries, saddle leather and red currents, dry spices and savoury/herbal/lactic undertones. It's a rustic wine with the acidity to stand up to tomato sauces and the structure for grilled sausages and it has flavours of roasted spices, cocoa, leather and white pepper. Good persistence here but leaner than previous vintages.
