Note di degustazione
The flagship 2013 Il Blu comes across as quite understated in this vintage, with less of its customary depth and explosive energy. Silky tannins and plush textures add to the wine's appeal. There is good definition to the dark red/purplish fruit, if not quite the allure that makes the best vintages of Il Blu so irresistible.

The 2013 Il Blu is truly an exceptional wine. This blend of 70% Merlot, 25% Sangiovese and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon pours from the bottle with midnight black intensity. The wine is luscious and loud in terms of its aromatic intensity but the effect is beautifully balanced all the while. The wine is streamlined and tight in the mouth but don't underestimate its length and persistence. The finish can be counted in many long heartbeats. Some 32,000 bottles were produced.
