Talosa, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, Alboreto 2021

100% Sangiovese grown on sandstone and clay, given two years in oak; about a third in French barrels (none new) and the rest in large Slavonian oak vats. Hugely appealing scent of cherries and mocha dust. Ready — though will keep for years. Bright and juicy cherry and berried fruit. Refinement, texture and power in abundance. Lightly spicy with a hint of liquorice. In Tuscany you would drink it with rare Chianina beef — go for a ribeye here. Now–2030
