A 70-30 blend of Pallagrello Nero and Casavecchia (aged in oak for 12 months), the 2014 Piancastelli is a ripe and robust red wine that hits the plate with heavy ripeness. The bouquet offers aromas of black fruit, prune, spice and a touch of grilled porcino mushroom. This vintage is soft at the back and lacks the structure needed for extended cellar aging. Grapes are left to air-dry on the vines.
