Country: Italy / Vigna La Casa
Variety: Sangiovese Grosso Tuscany
Winery: Caparzo / Brunello di Montalcino

This opens with elegant and finely tuned aromas of wild berry, dried ginger, smoked bacon and dried herb. It is still toasty and young at this point and will benefit from another 5–10 years of cellar aging. The tannins are smooth and polished.
