This is the most prestigious Super Tuscan wine produced by the Muralia winery. This full-bodied premium red wine has lots of character and complexity, making it great value for money. The wine is produced from a blend of Syrah (50%), Cabernet Sauvignon (30%) and Sangiovese (20%) grapes and has fantastic balance and structure. This wine is both rich and bold and is extremely drinkable now. If stored properly, the wine will further develop with excellent long-term ageing potential.
Aroma: Pronounced and intriguing aromas of succulent ripe black fruits - particularly blackberry and blackcurrant – with overtones of black fruit jam and brambles. Notes of pipe tobacco, oak and eucalyptus with hints of black pepper.
Taste: Dry with medium-to-high acidity, high alcohol and medium-to-high tannins. Full-bodied with an imposing and persistent long finish. Opens with decadent black fruit flavours – particularly plum, blackcurrant, cherry and blackberry – with vegetal overtones (particularly vine stems) and notes of oak, cedar and leather on the finish.
Open: To fully appreciate the complexity of the wine, it's best to open at least 2 hours before service.
Dark and uncompromising. Beguiling and closed on the nose with an aromatic power of black fruits and pipe tobacco, juniper berries, black pepper and myrrh, well combined with noble wood notes. The taste is full-bodied, intense and biting. aromas of forest berries and black cherries, hints of tobacco and vanilla pods; full fruit on the palate, some dark chocolate; Fine tannins and balanced acid structure. Long and persistent finish of great class.
