 Tasted by DaddyNeedsPow on 3/28/2021 & rated 86 points: Serviceable pizza wine! (538 views)
 Tasted by Jamscharer on 8/17/2020 & rated 89 points: Good value everyday Chianti. (552 views)
 Tasted by cuffthis on 2/22/2020 & rated 82 points: Medium garnet in color, this wine reveals muted aromas of cherry pit, plum and dust on the nose. The mouth feel brings low levels of acidity along with tea and plum. The finish has soft tannins but is very short. 12.5% abv.

Purchased for $7US/375ml, this was a huge dissapointment. At this early stage in its life, it is not recommended. Perhaps additional bottle age will add needed complexity.

Sangiovese Blend

Sangiovese blend is used in CellarTracker for Italian wines to represent wines predominantly made of Sangiovese and blended with traditional Italian grapes. It is different than SuperTuscan which is a blend of Sangiovese with non-traditional (eg Bordeaux) varieties, often in closer to equal portions. For example, Chianti is at least 80% Sangiovese and will always be listed Sangiovese blend.
