The 2015 Tenuta degli Dei Cavalli is a remarkable red wine hailing from the renowned region of Tuscany, Italy. This proprietary blend showcases the expertise of the father-and-son team, Tommaso and Roberto Cavalli, who have created a masterpiece that truly deserves recognition.

With a deep, garnet color that is alluring and captivating, this wine immediately catches the eye. The nose is greeted with an array of enticing aromas, including dark blackberry, Morello cherry, and plum, which are accompanied by subtle hints of tobacco and spice. These complex aromatics perfectly set the stage for the sensational tasting experience that awaits.

On the palate, the 2015 Cavalli displays a perfect balance between power and finesse. The blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc, and 35% Petit Verdot creates a symphony of flavors that dance across the taste buds. The primary intensity of the dark fruit is complemented by the wine's mid-weight body, allowing for a delightful exploration of its layers. The finish is invigorating, with a blast of crisp acidity that leaves a lasting impression.

Having been aged in a combination of barrique and tonneaux for 18 months, this wine has undergone the necessary maturation to develop its full potential. Its aging evolution is evident from the first sip to the last, as it continues to evolve and reveal new dimensions of flavor.
