 Tasted by drlang946 on 7/1/2022 & rated 89 points: Allow to Breath for an hour or more - showing some brownish edge color but drinks well (250 views)
 Tasted by LotionInTheBasket on 2/9/2022: Popped and gave a 45 minute decant. Opaque garnet in the glass with a slight browning at the brim. Plush Cherries, savory, loamy earthiness, dried rose petals, subtle spiciness. A very lovely wine, savory and full, lighter on the acidity than other TN's had me expecting. Nice lengthy finish. Great value and in a good place. (322 views)
 Tasted by deetz on 2/1/2018 & rated 93 points: Cherry, dusty potting soil and earth, touch of VA but in a very pleasant way. Very silky, approachable tannins, still with great structure, complemented by generous acidity.

For the price, this is one of the best vino Nobiles I’ve had in a long wine. (1115 views)
 Tasted by Oldworlddrinker on 7/5/2017 & rated 90 points: Wine needs time to open up and show it full expression,
After 15 minutes on the glass, it showed notes of dried cherries and toasted thyme along with other Tuscan herb, Paired nicely with a pork zucchini lasagna. (1172 views)

Sangiovese

SANGIOVESE: (Pronounced "sahn-joh-vhe-se").
Sangiovese - Italy's claim to fame, the pride of Tuscany. Traditionally made, the wines are full of cherry fruit, earth, and cedar. It produces Chianti (Classico), Rosso di Montalcino, Brunello di Montalcino, Rosso di Montepulciano, Montefalco Rosso, and many others. Sangiovese is also the backbone in many of the acclaimed, modern-styled "Super-Tuscans", where it is blended with Bordeaux varietals (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc) and typically aged in French oak barrels, resulting a wine primed for the international market in the style of a typical California cabernet: oaky, high-alcohol, and a ripe, jammy, fruit-forward profile.[16]

Semi-classic grape grown in the Tuscany region of Italy. Used to produce the Chianti and other Tuscan red wines. Has many clonal versions, two of which seem to predominate. The Sangiovese Grosso clone Brunello variety is used for the dark red, traditionally powerful and slow-maturing "Brunello di Montalcino" wine. The other is the Sangiovese Piccolo, also known under the historical synonym name Sangioveto, used for standard Chianti Classico DOC wines. Old vine derived wine is often used in the better versions, needing several years ageing to reach peak. A third clone, Morellino, is used in a popular wine blend with the same name found in the southern part of the province. Recent efforts in California with clones of this variety are very promising, producing medium-bodied reds with rich cherry or plumlike flavors and aromas. Among the available clonal versions are R6 and R7, derived from the Montalcino region of Italy, having average productivity/ripening and producing small berries on medium size clusters. R10 and R24 are well-recommended. R23, listed as deriving from the Emilia-Romagna region, has good vigor with medium-small clusters with earlier ripening. R102 derives from the Montepulciano region and reported to have average vigor with moderate productivity that results in higher sugar levels and good acidity from medium-small berries on medium-small clusters. Has synonym name of Nielluccio where grown in Corsica.
