The 2004 Vitiano Rosso is an equal part blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot, aged three months in small oak barrels. This serious effort possesses a deep ruby/purple-tinged color as well as lovely aromas of black currants, licorice, dried herbs, and earth. An amazing value, it boasts remarkable texture, medium body, and pure, ripe berry flavors. Drink it over the next 1-2 years.
