This is an even blend of the native grapes Sangiovese and Canaiolo. Released almost ten years after the harvest, the 2010 Terrine opens to delicately evolved notes of tar, licorice and potting soil. This is a mid-weight red wine that has passed the test of time, forgoing its fruit intensity in favor of those aged tertiary aromas that are so well defined here. The bouquet is fragile and elegant, but the wine offers considerably more power in the mouth where its thickness and natural succulence wraps thickly over the palate. Uncork it soon it with a platter of Pecorino and Caciotta. Only 4,000 bottles were released.
