Il Bastardo - Sangiovese di Toscana 2019 Italy and hints of fresh violetsThe warm, dry, 2017 vintage gives this years model a little extra flesh and heft. The aromas feature rich and deep black cherry, dark raspberry, and hints of fresh violets and warm earth. On the palate theres lots of ripe raspberry and dark cherry fruit with notions of leather and flowers showing nicely before a squirt of fresh acidity and whip of lightly chewy tannins show up to give support.
