Sunday, March 5, 2017 - Similar to your standard Ruffino profile, rugged Old World, but in this case much more rounded and with a polished "chocolate finish." Firm cherry and dark berry fruit profiles, muddy tobacco, "tea", and a bit of the Ruffino funk. Medium to light bodied - a pasta wine eh!
I returned to this one and found it completely different than my first bottle...NOT BAD! Not great either.
Semi-traditional.
