Signature Tuscan earthy minerality is rather subtle in the aroma profile, but it comes on strong on the palate, with toasty oak joining in and serving to balance the dry, dark berry fruit. Supple in the mouth, with great flavor push in the finish and a little grip that sustains the flavors. Castello del Terriccio’s will show well with a marbled steak or an herb glazed chicken.
