Rich and ample, this wine combines the body of Sangiovese with the fruit and structure from Cabernet Sauvignon and the fruit and elegance of Syrah. This creates a full, powerful wine.

From the vineyards around the castle in Montalcino, this wine was the first 'Super-Tuscan' from Montalcino. This wine combines Sangiovese with Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. All are vinified separately before being blended together for ageing in wood.

Heady, dark fruit aromas with chocolate and kirsch. Full, elegant and richly smooth palate corralled by Sangiovese grip, spiked by leafy Cabernet and soothed by supple Syrah. Long, fresh finish carried by firm, fine tannins.

Castello Banfi was founded in 1978 by the Mariani family, Italian-Americans who had been involved in wine importing and distribution since 1919. They saw great potential in this then sleepy Tuscan region and from the start their goal was to establish a point of excellence in Montalcino. Combining a respect for tradition and the environment with state of the art research and working practices they have helped to transform the regions wines and established Banfis reputation in an impressively short period of time. They produce premium wines in Montalcino and beyond with a profound respect for the land and people from which they come.
