Aromas of licorice, tobacco and new leather mingle with ripe woodland berry and balsamic whiffs of camphor. The aromas follow over to the full-bodied, rather concentrated palate along with dried cherry and ground clove framed in firm tannins. Reflecting the heat of the vintage combined with the absence of the late Franco Biondi Santi's restraint, you'll also detect the warmth of alcohol on the close. It's riper and more approachable than the house style fans of the estate are accustomed to.
