Smooth, ripe tasting and well rounded, this full-bodied wine is packed with broad strawberry and red-cherry flavors and shows a relaxed, easy mouthfeel. 

Melon, apricot, candied hazelnuts, orange blossom, honey and pear compote all show themselves in both the nose and the palate of the wine.  

The fruit for this wine comes from a cutting planted below eagle peak in 1998. It‘s rumored to be a rare Brunello clone from centuries-old vineyards outside of Montalcino acquired late-night and under questionable legal circumstances. But then, we’ll never know, will we? We hope you enjoy this illicit Sangiovese as much as we do! 

Chianti Classico made with 100% Sangiovese grapes from a single vineyard. There is peculiar aromatic complex of this wine, which embodies a very complex spicy component to a ripened fruit.
