Note di degustazione
Good medium red. Cherry, smoky oak and an ineffable note of dried flowers on the nose. Sweet, minerally and penetrating, with lovely integrated acidity energizing the cherry and raspberry flavors. There's a positive mintiness that contributes cut and lift to the firm back end. Chris Figgins now ages this singular Washington sangiovese in neutral 30-hectoliter Radoux casks. Juicy and very inviting wine.

The medium purple-colored 2007 Sangiovese (which contains 14% Syrah) spent 22 months in mostly neutral French oak. It offers up a nose of spicy cherries and strawberries. On the palate it displays savory, spicy fruit, elegance, a vibrant acid structure, and several years of aging potential. Give it 3-4 years to fully blossom and drink it through 2022. Tel.
