Note di degustazione
The 2011 Corbaia is Sangiovese paired with Cabernet Sauvignon. This is a stunning rendition with a focused and delineated style that is absolutely attractive. The wine offers very precise points of dark berry and spice that work as prefect compliments. Together, they offer a pleasing sense of intensity that is bright and vocal, yet never over the top. Corbaia is the kind of wine you'll want to pair with shaved truffles or porcini mushrooms. The wine keeps the palate clean thanks to its firm tannins and bright acidity.

The 2011 Corbaia is superb. Iron, smoke, chalk and a host of ferrous, savory notes draw the taster in. Far from an easy going or blowsy 2011, the Corbaia stands out with its impressive structure and persistence, both of which balance the ripeness of the year nicely. This powerhouse Sangiovese/Cabernet Sauvignon blend could use another few years in bottle to fully come together, but it is impressive today. Readers should expect a wine built on structure and tension, with distinctly terroir-inflected notes pushed forward and fruit that sits more in the background. This is also a rare 2011 that needs time in bottle to fully open up.
