The seductive allure of the 2007 is nowhere to be found. Instead, the 2006 is built on a serious spine of formidable tannin and dark red/black fruit. Hints of tar, licorice, rose petals and tobacco inform the powerful, virile finish. The 2006 is going to require considerable patience, but it is clearly a jewel of a wine, even at this early stage.“ 2010 ROSSO DI MONTALCINO Variety 100% Sangiovese Vineyards Estate vineyards in Sant’ Angelo in Colle in the Montalcino DOCG zone.
