Yes, it’s costly — but once in a while you’ve got to spoil yourself and taste a wine at the top of its game. Dense purple ruby in colour, it offers an elegant nose of blackberries and spice. Medium- to full- bodied on the palate, it has that firm, dry, majestic flavour of mature Sangiovese. Food match: osso buco or veal chop.
