Drank 1/6/20. Paired with Lasagne. Typically a good value, solid wine year in and year out. Saw this one at Costco on sale for around $13. Nose of cherry, earth, and a touch of vanilla and blackberry. Initially quite closed off on the palate, this eventually reveals layers of sweet red cherry, and a bit of tar, backed by tannins that are still quite firm. Long, dry finish dominated by red cherry and tar, with evident, drying tannins. Needs some time. 3/21/7/3/4 +50=88 pts. Better on Day 3. I would give this a couple of years, or at least an hour to decant. May be 89-90 pt range.

Nice sangio for the price. Opens up nicely with some air and pairs great with Italian food.

Dark ruby coloration with tinge or brown. No translucency. On the nose, dark berry, black cherry, black dirt, tobacco, oak, vanilla and minerals. On the palate, cherry, anise, tobacco, florals, and minerals. Medium body. Tannins still present. Easy to drink, lighter Sangiovese that drinks bigger with food.

Spicy and earthly with reasonable complexity. Fairly dry with a good amount of acidity. Pleasant nose and finish. I didn't love this, but other people quite liked it. $18
