Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Feels a bit sharp and aggressive in the mouth, with acidity cutting across the currant, licorice and cola flavors. The wine also is very dry and fairly tannic. The impression is of a lack of generosity, especially at this price.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A very good interpretation of Sangiovese. A pretty sharp mouthfeel, but maybe that’s to be expected from this high-acid variety. Otherwise, it’s nice and dry, with complex cherry, red currant, licorice, leather and sandalwood flavors. Good with spicy beef, pork and veal dishes.

A simple but likeable red blend, dry and supple in tannins, with earthy, sweet flavors of berries, cherries, tobacco and cedar.
