The greatest feat in winemaking is the ability to craft a rich, powerful red wine that is all of that and elegant, too. The Banfi 2015 SummuS is a remarkable Super Tuscan blend that is suave and sophisticated, combining nuance and balance with impressive depth and complexity. Showing seductive aromas of blackberry, cassis, cherry and blueberry on the palate, with supple tannins, a note of graphite and exceptional length, this is an impeccably made wine that rivals Banfi’s other heavy hitters in quality. A Platinum Award winner at the 2019 Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition.
