Volpaia 2010 Balifico Red (Toscana)

Country: Italy / Balifico
Variety: Red Blend Tuscany
Winery: Volpaia / Toscana

Aromas of bluish-black fruit, blue iris, menthol and aromatic herbs lead the nose of this 65% Sangiovese and 35% Cabernet Sauvignon blend. The palate offers dried black cherries, blackberries, coffee, tobacco and sage alongside firm, polished tannins. A note of ground aniseed closes the finish.
