| | Tasted by W20W on 12/19/2021 & rated 85 points: Moderate cherry aroma. Fruits/sour cherries on palate. The body is medium/full. The wine has pronounced acidity and tannins. Will see if it improves in the bottle. (1217 views) |
| | Tasted by henrygjeffreys on 9/5/2021: Can't see a vintage so assuming it's NV.
Autumn fruit on the nose, red cherries and something a little floral,
Quite firm tannin, bittersweet cherry fruit and then sweeter oaky notes.
Touch of RS - I think.
Nice fruit but oak is a little intrusive as is the over sweetness. (2437 views) |
| | Tasted by finewinebuff57 on 4/21/2020 & rated 86 points: A non-vintage blend Montepulciano and Sangiovese from the Abruzzi, and Primitivo and Negroamaro from Puglia. Each variety is vinified separately, then barrel aged and blended. This was a bottle which has been hanging around for a while so some bottle age. Ripe and attractive if straightforward.

| | Tasted by thebonnydooner on 1/12/2018 & rated 86 points: Dark and ripe, nice acidity, some bitterness, but ripe and plush on the finish. Indistinct black fruits on the nose and palate. Overall, pretty tasty. (995 views) |
| | Tasted by thebonnydooner on 12/29/2017 & rated 85 points: Initially seemed a little thin, but filled out nicely with some air. Cherry and blackberry fruit, a little tannic with great plummy and currant acidity, some bitterness and a touch of herbs. Nose is simple and pretty sweet, but the palate has some grip and zest. Not bad value for the money (approx $15) but not sure would buy again. (997 views) |

| | Tasted by Teulada on 7/16/2017 & rated 80 points: Thick black fruit that's been sun-dried, soft tannins and should have been produced in the far south of Italy, watch out for a sediment and decant it if you can (1080 views) |
