Donatella Cinelli Colombini Il Drago e le 8 Colombe 2014
Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, Italy2014 is all about elegance, from its moderate alcohol of 14 percent to its early drinkability. Cool nights extended the growing season, lending an aromatic edge to this “Super Tuscan,” 60/20/20 blend of sangiovese, merlot and sagrantino. It’s grown at 400 metres above sea level in Trequanda, Fattoria del Collea, on hilly limestone, sandstone and sea sand soils. Look for spicy, vibrant red fruits with a firm, acid tannin balance and a long dry finish suggesting it can take on a variety of rich dishes or easily spend a decade more in the cellar.
