Medium red with a hint of purple. Vanila, Dark Cherry, slightly smoky. Light, subdued fruits. Medium tanins. Vanila. Smooth. After a couple of hours I can taste the CabSav blending with the Sangiovese. Medium finish. I'm not sure about this one. The flavour complexity is good, but it is too closed at the moment. 1hr later Getting much better. A very good Toscana blended wine.

Notes
Alcohol: 13%
This wine is the most representative of the estate, and exemplifies its originality of flavors and aromas.
It was created to express the Terrabianca philosophy to the fullest, and has immediately distinguished itself for its unique personality.The wine has such cellar life and potential, that an “Artist’s Series Collection” of 1.5-, 3- and 12- liter size bottles was added. The production is approximately 172,000 bottles per year.

Vinification
Vinification is of the traditional kind needed to produce great red wines. It consists of a 12-day maceration of the skins in the juice, in vats that do not exceed 100 hectoliters. It is refined for 12 months in 300-litre barriques of different provenance, after which it spends 6 months in the bottle before being released.

The Wine
The truly impressive structure of this Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon blend is exalted and perfected by a lengthy sojourn in barriques of diverse oak types. Its intense bouquet expresses all the complexity of its components - hints of cocoa, roasted almonds and berries, with plenty of fruit still. Depth, dimension and persistence make this wine a perfect match for important creative dishes.

Smokey, tar aromas with bold cherry fruit. The palate offers nice rounded berry fruit flavors with flavors of coco, tar and oak. Well structured, balanced and complex with a long finish reminiscent of the palette. This wine is excellent.

Ein Wein von großer Struktur, reich und voll durch eine lange Reifezeit in Barriques. Der Gschmack ist eine Synthese verschiedener Aromen wie Kakao, geröstete Mandeln und Waldfrüchte; viel Körper und ein langer Abgang.
