Beyond the Label

The Barbaneras have done it again.

Their sumptuous Super Tuscan red is truly super in every sense—now more than ever. Aged for 18 months in fine French oak, it’s a classic blend of ripe, red-fruited Sangiovese and deep, black-fruited Cabernet Sauvignon. Past vintages have been critical smash-hits, with 90+ point scores from leading Italian wine critic Luca Maroni. And along comes the 2016 release…

It’s the fourth vintage in a row to win 99 points from Maroni (the highest score on the critic’s trademark 99-point scale). He has called it “an absolute masterpiece”—you’ll know why on first sip.

Vecciano is brimming with loads of ripe black fruit character, balanced with complex nuances of baking spices and earth; smooth and velvety tannins introduce a mile-long finish. It’ll be especially delicious with hearty pasta dishes or a thick cut of steak.

Limited cases imported—first come, first served.
