The 2004 Le Stanze di Poliziano is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot aged in small French oak barrels. A dark ruby, it opens with a lovely, well-articulated nose followed by sensations of scorched earth, tar, flowers, dark fruit and toasted oak. It offers excellent length on the palate, with a very attractive, generous personality and fine tannins on the finish. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2018.
