The 2004 Quattrocentenario 1596/1996 is 100% Sangiovese. This dark, full-bodied offering reveals considerable intensity in its dark fruit, earthiness, spices and tobacco. The wine possesses plenty of depth and stuffing although the tannins could use a touch more silkiness and polish. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2020.
