Description
In the glass, the aroma is generous and intense. Wow-factor for days! Just a massive depth of fragrance and flavour. Tobacco, plum, dried cherry, fig, thyme, and nutmeg abound. The oak profile is voluptuous and impressive, but Pierre-Jean succeeds in not overpowering this handsome fruit profile. The tannins are gentler and less extracted than the Brunello’s, sculpted for earlier drinking but certainly not dumpy or tired. In short, it’s a full-bodied stunner that’s approachable now but also has the structure to improve over another five to ten years. A naturally produced Super-Tuscan that can go the distance—it doesn’t get much better than that!
The Bevilo is a blend of 90% Sangiovese, supplemented with Cannaiolo, Cabernet Franc and Merlot, which matures for 30 months in French oak.
