Palate & Finish
02On the palate, the wine offers a beautifully structured mouthfeel, with supple tannins and bright acidity leading to a lingering finish. Flavors of ripe plum, subtle leather, and a touch of balsamic complexity dance across the tongue. This expressive Sangiovese is a perfect companion to traditional Tuscan dishes, such as a hearty wild boar ragu, grilled Florentine steak, or aged Pecorino cheese. It also shines alongside roasted lamb or a classic lasagna Bolognese.
