Emilia Romagna’s version of a Super Tuscan – the red that revolutionised Tuscany’s wines in the 1970s. It blends Bordeaux's Cabernet with Sangiovese. From the superb Poderi dal Nespoli, this gorgeous, dense, cherry-rich red has savoury depths of oak.

Rich in red fruits, blackberry and liquorice spice, this is an impressive blend of Sangiovese with Bordeaux's Cabernet. It’s from the Tre Bichieri (the top award) cellar Poderi dal Nespoli that recently had a major investment injection and now has an amazing state of the art winery. They are still a family affair run today by the fourth generation, Fabio and Celita Ravaioli, who aim to make Romagna a top destination for food and wine lovers. For this dense red the Cabernet grapes were left on the vine for an extra month to add a powerful layer of dark, chocolatey fruit. It’s a labour of love, aged in French oak barrels for 11 months. Open early and decant. Celita recommends it with quail with morels (a local classic) or braised meats.

"One of a kind. Warm and beautiful. I don't have a wine in my cellar that tastes like this one at all" 5-Star Online Review
