Wine Review: This offering from Bolgheri opens up with a nice jammy boysenberry and elderberry bouquet with hints of baking spices. On the palate, it is fresh with berry fruit compote flavors intermingled with nutmeg, clove, and touches of vanilla. It has a typical Italian wine finish of leather, tobacco, and aged balsamic. This mainly Merlot blend would pair really well with grilled boar with a side of roasted veggies. - Nicolay

Winemaker Notes: Its deep, dark and dense color opens the way to explosive aromas characterized by a vibrant balsamic note. On the palate it is velvety and enveloping, with a harmonious and balanced end. It pairs well with beef steaks, roasts and stews.
