Description

The Grifi from Avignonesi is a 50/50 blend of Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon from two vineyard sites in Montepulciano.  Both varieties marry particularly well in this powerful red with Sangiovese showing up front fruit, spice and elegance whilst the Cabernet gives backbone and tannins.  Packed with dark berry fruits with lighter hints of blueberry and plum, the nose also shows plenty of oak and spice, the palate is complex and shows great depth.  This is a wonderful wien to enjoy with pelnty of breathing now, but has the capacity to age for at least a decade.


Founded in 1974, Avignonesi is the leading winery in the Montepulciano area of Tuscany, enjoying a sterling reputation amongst wine critics around the world.
