It's only wine but I like it

Splendid CCR here from Volpaia. Complex and long finishing. Red cherry, hints of sour cherry, with silky smooth tannin and Sangiovese acidity. This estate has gone from strength to strength over the years and though the prices have increased on this and the normale CC, the quality improvements have more than kept pace.
