Is Siepi a good wine?
Tasting profile
A complex, full-bodied Super Tuscan that rewards decanting, with dark fruit, dried flowers, and a Bordeaux-like floral nose layered over tobacco, cigar box, licorice, and vanilla from oak aging. Tannins are soft and the finish is long and rich, showing mature, concentrated fruit and real elegance.
