Avignonesi Grifi 2022 Toscana Rosso

Grifi is a Tuscan red wine from Avignonesi, blending Sangiovese with Cabernet Sauvignon. It is matured for 18 months in wood and is suited to long ageing while also being ready to drink now. It accompanies meat second courses, especially roast leg of lamb. It has a ruby red colour. The nose centres on mature red fruit such as cherry, sour cherry and plum, with notes of nutmeg, bitter cocoa, tobacco and eucalyptus. On the palate, tannic texture, freshness, body and warmth come together in a fine balance, with good length.
