Among the original “Super-Tuscans” acclaimed by the international wine press, ‘Balifico’ is a powerful, full-bodied blend of Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon from very high-altitude vineyards. Well-structured, with firm tannins, dark fruit, & significant oak, it will age beautifully. Food Pairing Steaks, hearty stews, game, lamb

The 2018 Balifico, Volpaia's Sangiovese/ Cabernet Sauvignon blend, is fabulous. Rich and inky, the 2018 offers up a compelling mélange of dark berry fruit, dark spice, licorice and espresso. I especially admire the wine's textural richness. I imagine the 2018 will drink well for many, many years to come. In this tasting it is a total knock-out.
