A stellar vintage with a little frost in spring; t he crop was reduced by 30%. According to Federico Giuntini Masseti, ‘1985 demonstrated that Sangiovese wasn’t the problem but the way we grew it – we needed to reduce yields’. Dark garnet still! This tastes like a young wine! Gorgeous! Freshness and tang and very pure Sangiovese. Very much a food wine. Long and quite delicious. (JR)

Lovely mint chocolate character, bitter tannin, black cherry, floral and long. Still got it. (RH)
