A legendary, collector-level Italian red wine presented in an elite large format from an iconic, benchmark vintage. The utterly beguiling nose unrolls with a layered bouquet of ripe strawberries, rose petals, and blood orange, beautifully underlined by sweet pipe tobacco, cedar, mint, and campfire ash. On the full-bodied palate, it strikes a magnificent balance of density and razor-sharp precision, driving rich flavors of pure red cherry, raspberry, and dark chocolate across powerful, steely tannins and a bracing line of iron-like minerality through an incredibly long, resonant finish.
Food Pairing: Pairs magnificently with slow-braised beef brisket, classic osso buco, roasted wild boar, or rich white truffle risotto.

95 Points - James Suckling
A ripe, velvety red with lots of ripe strawberries, chocolate and some hazelnuts. It’s full-bodied with ripe tannins and a flavorful finish. Better after 2022.
93 Points - Wine Spectator
A mix of pure cherry, raspberry, underbrush and iron are the hallmarks of this dense, powerful red. It's bracing and flirts with austerity as the steely structure exerts itself on the lingering finish. Patience required. Best from 2024 through 2050. 290 cases made, 175 cases imported.
