The top Sangiovese in the Pizzini range, this Forza di Ferro 2022 comes from a cool year. A wine with great flow, some mouth warmth has pulled it back a notch or two.
The longer this was open, the more inclined it was to share its personality. Scents of char, meat board, pizza sauce, basil, cherries and Five Spice flow neatly to the palate. A couple of days on and this is a silky delight with a fabulous length and beadth on offer. A little red apple crunch sneaks in on close but that warmth had me curious. Overlook that and its a beautiful drink.
Drink to eight years.
