Sangiovese from Tuscany, Italy

Winemaker Notes

Il Carbonaione is a full-bodied, rich wine with an exuberant personality and great aging potential. It has abundant aromas of red and dark berry fruits – tart cherries, blackberries, currants, and plums with notes of spice. On the palate, the wine is lush and full-bodied with flavors of berry fruits buoyed by focused tannins unfolding over a pleasant, lingering finish.

James Suckling – 95 Points

Wonderful aromas of sour cherries and orange peel follow through to a full body with layered tannins that are creamy and juicy. Intense finish with excellent structure. Give this time to soften and come more together. Drink after 2024.

Food Pairing 

Pairs well with grilled lamb chops, sugo all’amatriciana sauces, Bistecca alla Fiorentina, and terrine de foie gras.
