Red with violets shades. Intense, strong flavours of blueberries and spices. Dry, full-bodied, good persistence and clear presence of tannin, closing with flavours of spices and fruits. 75% Syrah, 25% Sangiovese

WS 88  Extremely attractive aromas of blueberry, with hints of vanilla, follow through to a medium body, with firm tannins, solid structure and lots of good fruit. A little short at the end, but very good for this wine. Best after 2011. 8,335 cases made. -JS, Wine Spectator, Score: 88

In a family famed throughout the world for its shoes, Salvatore Ferragamo has taken the road less travelled. About an hour south of Firenze (that's Florence to us) the Ferragamo family found a little piece of heaven. The Duke Amedeo of Savoia of Aosta had used it as his Tuscany wild game hunting reserve. The Ferragamo family purchased it in the 1993 with the intention of bringing a brave new vineyard into the world. 

The wines themsleves are the product of a lot of determination and investment. Sangiovese is planted along with a mix of ‘international varieties' (that is, French) to make classic Tuscan and 'super'Tuscan' wines. If the wines have anything in common it is a refinement and elegance that sets them apart from similar concepts. Winemaker Niccolo D'Afflitto is highly regarded for his skill as a winemaker and the Ferragamo's desire to be the best at everything they do means that these wines tend to outshine the competition.
