Gabbro

A pure cabernet sauvignon from Suvereto on the Tuscan coast showing vivid aromas of rose stems and hints of green tobacco, graphite and currant bush. Medium-bodied with linear and vertical tannins that give the wine drive and tension. Firm and racy at the end. Needs three or four years to come together.

Dark, deep ruby red. Wonderfully expressive nose, cassis, mint, elderberries, also oak, mineral and stone nuances, an attractive touch of ripe red pepper, fantastic savoury notes. On the palate, full-bodied, with radiant fruit, embedded in still youthful oak tannins, tightly woven, very juicy, elegant, smooth, still quite young, needs time.
