Avignonesi In Grandi Annate 2018

In Grandi Annate is only produced during the best vintages. The philosophy behind this wine is to highlight the best traits of Sangiovese from Tuscany. This wine is a keeper. Lay it down, wait and enjoy it later due to its fantastic ageing potential.

Colour

Medium ruby red.

Bouquet

Notes of wild strawberry and liquorice.

Flavour

On the palate it is rich and luxurious, with a creamy vanilla aftertaste. A real ambassador for its habitat, it brings balance and elegance to a slightly acidic start.

Pairing

Cheese
