Banfi Marrucheto (Red)

2019

Dark chocolate, dark cherries. Quite reductive at first, with dark sombre leatheriness, dark morello cherries, a touch of spice. Tannins drying and clumsy. Beginnings of complexity and mult-dimensioned fruit with spice, texture and structure. Old-fashioned, traditional, classic. A bit bumbling. High acidity, nice enough, but ultimately lacks the energy that I expect from this price point.
