This is a big and rich young red with light plum-jam, vanilla and chocolate character. Full body and velvety tannins. From organically grown grapes. Drink in 2020.

The 2016 Casino Delle Vie is mostly Sangiovese blended with Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. This is a mid-weight wine that would pair seamlessly with grilled pork chops or spicy marinated vegetables on the grill. The wine offers brief moments of sweetness, followed by longer interludes of savory spice. The wine is lean in terms of mouthfeel, with lots of black fruit and tangy spice to keep your interest.

Black currant and blueberry fruit signals this aromatic red. Juicy and balanced, with lively acidity and light tannins gracing the tobacco-lined finish. Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Drink now through 2023.

Aromas of dark berry, cedar and a whiff of green peppercorn lead the nose on this blend of 80% Sangiovese, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Merlot. Made with organically farmed grapes, the savory, enjoyable palate offers dried black cherry, vanilla and a hint of star anise alongside polished tannins.
