"Poggio Scalette's 2004 Il Carbonaione (100% Sangiovese) is another animal entirely. It bursts from the glass with layers of deeply spiced, mentholated fruit. Sweet and expansive on the palate, this powerful, dense wine offers superb balance. Today the tannins are somewhat imposing, so further bottle age seems prudent. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024."

Veel potentieel, complex, zware wijn, moet luchten, eigenlijk te jong
