Among the first red wines from the Chianti Classico area to be produced without white grapes, this lively blend of 80% Sangiovese with 15% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc (which was also the first wine of its type matured in French oak barriques for 22 months) has great grace, length and poise. Tasted from magnum, it's dark and dense on the palate, but still has a lively vitality, braced by sharp tannins – and still has significant years ahead in the cellar.
