About This Wine

This legendary Super Tuscan is historically significant as the pioneering Italian wine made predominantly from Cabernet Sauvignon, setting the standard for premium, Bordeaux-style reds outside of traditional appellation rules. Its immense international success led to it being granted the unique status of its own dedicated appellation.

Tasting Notes

  • Intense and clear nose of currant and mulberry
  • Subtle savory and aromatic notes of cedar, balsam herb, and graphite minerality
  • The palate is polished, full-bodied, and elegant with juicy dark berry fruit

Food Pairing

Grilled or braised red meats, such as beef filet or roasted lamb
