The organically farmed Casuccia vineyard is located in the heart of the Chianti Classico region and the 2004 vintage was a winemakers dream. This wine is only produced in outstanding years and is mainly Sangiovese with a splash of Merlot. An intense wine with a complex and profound bouquet. Sublime opulence and elegance, this is a wine that ages spectacularly.

Vinous
(a sangiovese/merlot blend) Dark, saturated ruby. Overripe red and black cherry fruit aromas with hints of game and tar are complicated by minty blackberry jam. Fat, supple and full, with impressive mid-palate breadth, this boasts substantial ripe dark cherry, mocha and coffee liqueur flavors, with licorice and spice notes adding considerable complexity. This rather big-boned wine offers surprising mid-palate flavor delineation for its outsized ripeness. Much more persistent on the back end than the '04 base bottling, but this needs time.
