Castello di Volpaia Prelius Prile 2015

The vineyards sources of the Cabernet Sauvignon (40%), Sangiovese (40%), and Merlot (20%) that comprise this blend are located on a hilltop along the shores of a coastal lake, which lends this wine its name. Aromas of leather, graphite, and plum skin indicate its dark nature. Juicy with firm tannins, it offers a luxurious flavor profile of violets and cinnamon spice as well as a distinct mouthfeel. Score – 94. (Meridith May, tastingpanelmag.com, Sept. 2019)
