Panzano. Bright crimson. Vigorous tannin, and high fine-boned acidity, enhanced by a sappy citrus tang. Hint of black olive and orange over a baseline of plum. Very firm and demanding, beautifully tailored. (TC)

Greve in Chianti. 95% Sangiovese, 5% Canaiolo. Medium, youthful-looking ruby. At first a nutty, wild nose. With aeration more and more the Sangiovese liveliness comes to the fore. Intriguing and multilayered. Sweet and mouthfilling with refreshing acidity and muscular grainy tannin. Deserves more time but hard to resist now. (WS)
