Tenuta Il Palagio Casino delle Vie is most famous for being the Tuscan estate of the musician Sting. This wine is a red blend in the style of a Super Tuscan with the local Sangiovese grape supported by the international grapes Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. The end result has the cherry and dried herbal aromatic of Sangiovese but a firmer structure and more generous mid-palate from the Cabernet and Merlot. The style will appeal for Nebbiolo drinker on account of the firmer structure.
