The 2008 Le Volte is an impressively constituted, rich wine. In 2008 the wilder, rougher side of Sangiovese is particularly evident. Dark cherries, herbs and tobacco emerge from a powerful, rather burly frame. The vintage doesn’t seem to have given General Manager/Agronomist Leonardo Raspini and his contract growers the most ideal of conditions to work with. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2016.
