Sangiovese di Toscana "Pater"
I.G.T.

TASTING NOTES: A lively, clean ruby greets the eye, of notable luminosity. Aromas of ripe fruit immediately emerge, strawberry and blackberry foremost, followed by nicely-focused cherry and a subtle, appealing hint of spice. Smooth and savoury on the palate, it offers up richly-layered flavours, and a crisp acidity that makes for a sinewy, beautifully-constructed wine. A lean, well-focused finish.
