It is an icon of the Tuscan Maremma, a wine that masterfully combines power and finesse. It is considered one of the first true Super Tuscans from the Maremma and bears the unmistakable signature of Elisabetta Geppetti and the great oenologist Giacomo Tachis. It is a Bordeaux-style blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Alicante that achieved an extraordinary level of harmony in the 1998 vintage—a warm, balanced, and generous year. In the glass, it displays an intense garnet red color with a still-vibrant rim. The nose is deep and complex, with aromas of ripe black fruits, sour cherries preserved in alcohol, tobacco, chocolate, and sweet spices, set against a balsamic and mineral backdrop. On the palate, it is full-bodied, velvety, and well-structured, supported by fine tannins and a very long finish. The balance between warmth and freshness makes it, even today, an absolutely delightful, elegant, and refined wine. A meditative red wine, perfect with red meat, game, or strong cheeses, but also ideal for sipping alone to appreciate its depth.
