Torciano Super Tuscan IL Cavaliere
Wow...this is a gorgeous wine from the estate of Tenuta Torciano. Pierluigi Giachi has been very busy with his enologist, Giovanni Capelli. Signore Capelli works with wineries in Piemonte, Veneto, Abruzzi, Toscana, and Lazio, and is helping Pierluigi to expand his wine ventures to include other regions as well as his native Tuscany. His practice for special wines like the IL Cavaliere is to keep various proportions of the wine in tank,large casks,and small barriques of oak and chestnut, allowing him to customize the final blends for different styles. This Super Tuscan is 70% Sangiovese and 30% Merlot primarily from oak barriques. It is a truly delicious and full-bodied wine with a deep and well-rounded structure. A blockbuster. ILC98 ILC98
