From the “little hill of blackberries,” this is Vicchiomaggio's top modern wine, a blend of 90% Sangiovese and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon that stays in barrique for 18-24 months before bottling. It's toasty as a result, but also laden with blackberries and plums, then strikes a brighter, cranberryish note on the finish. Try in 2006, when the oak should be more integrated and the tannins more supple.
