Castello Banfi’s signature super Tuscan, Excelsus, is always superb and often spectacular. The 2015 falls into the spectacular camp. This vintage is one of the finest in the long and storied history of Excelsus, a massive, rich Tuscan red that exhibits layers of blackberry, cassis and black cherry, with profound depth and impressive length. It is a super Tuscan for the ages. A Platinum Award winner at the 2019 Critics Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
