Description

A tremendous value!  Darkly colored. Richly fruited.  Balanced structure.  Produced by the Marzi family using grapes cultivated across both the southwest and northeast exposures of the property to balance ripeness and structural acidity.  Hand harvested 100% organic Sangiovese.  Aged 18 months equally between concrete tanks and French oak barrels.

“A dark, layered, and “really succulent” medium-bodied wine with aromas of licorice, earth, black cherries, and dark chocolate. Noted for its velvety tannins, crisp acidity, and excellent potential for aging.” – 94 points, James Suckling

“Intense aromas and flavors of macerated cherry, plum, iron and eucalyptus, with grace notes of leather and licorice, are the hallmarks of this complex and powerful yet supple red. Shows excellent balance and length. Best from 2029 through 2045. 2,000 cases made, 800 cases imported.” – 93 points, Wine Spectator (June 30, 2026)
