Product Details
2005 Tenuta di Valgiano, Colline Lucchesi Rosso
(code: 69432B)
"Compared to the denser, cellar-worthy 2004 Tenuta, the 2005 is unequivocally
more perfumed with pretty red-fruited Sangiovese high-notes, yet as ever finely
structured and intricately detailed. Facilitated by fantastic terroir
overlooking Lucca and brought to life through biodynamics, the unorthodox blend
of Franco-Italian grapes (60% Sangiovese 20% Syrah 20% Merlot) dates back to
the early 19th century, to a time when Napoléon Bonaparte's sister
Elisa governed this French protectorate; something not lost on the team at
Valgiano. Delicious with chicken paella."
