Note di degustazione
With 4,000 bottles produced, the 2014 Contrada C (from the Contrada Chiappemacine) delivers loads of ripe and succulent fruit at the front. The bouquet presents cherry, blackberry and ripe plum. This red wine shows medium weight and a long persistence that is fueled both by the wine's acidity and its firm, delineated tannins. You'll recognize those volcanic tones of ash and yellow sulfur stone at the very tail end of the long finish.

From the Contrada of Chiappemacine, 80-year-old vines. Partly white, chalky soils. Minerally, fine fruit nose with chalky notes. Compact palate with brisk acidity, but the fruit really fills it out. Lots of depth on the finish and with rich coating tannins framing the whole. (WS)
