  • Complete description

    Vintage Description:

    This is a bold and thickly layered Tuscan expression of Petit Verdot that would stand up to a tall cut of grilled steak. The Collazzi 2016 Ferro offers dark plum and dried blackberry with spicy tones of nutmeg and smoked spice. That spiciness is not overdone, and the wine reveals a medium-weight approach that allows for your food flavors to shine through the denser parts of this wine, Ferro, named after the Italian word for iron. (Monica Larner - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 18th Mar 2021)
