Aromas of ripe red fruit with light toasted and spicy` notes on the nose. Powerful ripe black fruits on the palate and yet, it is silky and ample with balsamic notes and a hint of vanilla. Pleasant volume and a fresh and long finish.

The palate is sweetly generous with layers of flavour that blossom across the palate, with a barely contained wild quality to the fruit that will require a sustained “imprisonment of bottling” to deploy
its spectacular qualities.

This is Andrea Franchetti’s flagship wine from here, the extremes of southeast Tuscany, the wilds of the Val’d’Orcia. The blend of 60% Cabernet Franc, 35% Merlot. 4% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Petit Verdot has been impeccably crafted by Andrea, in line with the complexities of the vintage - bright, complex and poised - lovely wine.

On the nose, there is a rather beguiling balance of bright playfulness and brooding sobriety - quite a feat, and very much part of the overall charm. There is abundant fruit here, fresh and upbeat, with hints of spice and dark coffee, complemented by almost citric freshness and an underlying saline seam of minerals. Beautifully balanced, even in its infancy, this will continue to improve. The floral aromatics on the attenuated finish add additional elegance and flair - lovely wine.

Jet-ruby in colour this is instantly inviting, the nose offering a profusion of violet and red berries complemented by fennel notes. The palate, similarly, is fresh, lifted and rich in red fruit, lively though serious supported by grippy tannins. Fine and chiselled this is a wonderfully refined, elegant translation of the vintage - bravo to Peter and his team.

Deep ruby-garnet, this offers almost white wine aromatics, complementing attractive primary fruit, summer pudding berries and cherries. Wonderfully fresh and enticing, appetising and upbeat, the palate is light and airy - rather lovely in fact with precision and focus through to a crescendo on the finish – stunning.

Dark fruit and earthy notes prevail on the nose yet the palate leans more towards the red fruit spectrum, the texture silken and supple. This is generous and bright with hints of citrus - orange zest providing an extra dimension - dark chocolate and espresso, layered with fruit and directed by a well-integrated tannic structure through to a very rich, elegant finish.

This is the first vintage that this wine has been made under the new Côte d’Or appellation. It is made from a 2.5 hectare parcel of around 70 year old vines and is 20% whole bunch vinified in 2017. Displaying excellent density for its level, this is substantial, with bright red berries and forest fruits alongside ripe, supple tannins – a bit of a snip.
