just a touch too heavy on the oaky side on both the nose and palate which covers and even distorts some of the character for me, by a touch meaning I can still get the essence, the fruitful cherries, grape flavors, with tart, but strong acid to make for a good food-pairing which would ideally be with a tomato sauce, this is dry, I feel that sometimes the identifiable oak in Italian wine turns me off
