95% Sangiovese, 5% Merlot
Viticcio is an old estate in the Montefioralle area of the Chianti hills. This bottling is a fantastic value, with distinctive influence of oak from the year of aging in small French oak barrels followed by a year in larger, traditional Slavonian oak vats.
JAMES SUCKLING 92 POINTS - "A solid, dark-fruited red with bright, concentrated fruit and an earthy character. It offers spiced cherries, dried blood oranges and hints of cedar, walnuts and moist earth. Medium- to full-bodied, juicy and tense, with polished tannins. Lingering and poised. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold."
