Quality Sangiovese grapes which have been sadly overoaked to appeal to newbie Western Palates. After 30 minutes notes of earth and dried cherry came through. Many years to go with a good future when hopefully the oak will diminish. Personally I like the Old school approach from Biondi Santi where old oak and other procedures are usedresulting in wines which will age 50+ years. I tried a 2010 vintage of this wine from magnum in Italy 18 months ago which was also overoaked.

Top juice. Great with burgers.

Richard Eung Joon Chang

Bold complex nose, dried dark fruits, anise, hints of chocolate, grippy tannins. Yum!

It's no 2006, buy still quite drinkable. It's a little too okay for the amount of fruit, so you have to reach a little to get to the essence.
