Wine Profile
Wine Profile / Tasting Notes
A vary vain wine indeed, like its name, "Vanitoso", states. Dark ruby red in color. Aromas of fresh crushed cherries and raspberry on the nose. Fresh dark fruit and plum on the front palate. Hints of caramel and dark chocolate linger on the finish, and well-integrated silky tannins. A palate pleaser for sure!

More Information
Cantine Ravazzi were founded by grandfather Enio in 1956. Since then the Ravazzi Cellars have conquered the territory between Umbria and Tuscany as a synonym of genuineness, and in the 60s and 70s they represented the good Tuscan wine to accompany the great traditional cuisine of Siena. Enio's great passion has been transmitted to his son Alberto, who today heads Cantine Ravazzi. Under his direction the wines have acquired a different character, which has been able to conquer the best palates in the world. The qualitative development and the attention to design find their maximum expression in the "Collezione Privata".
