WineSaint
Dark cherry and tobacco emerge with earthy minerality and hints of incense. The palate shows remarkable concentration for such a challenging vintage, with bright acidity cutting through dense fruit and keeping everything focused. Salty undertones and herbal complexity build toward a persistent, mouth-coating finish. Il Marroneto delivered impressive freshness despite 2003's notorious heat.
