Forgot we owned this and was sitting on a (non-climate controlled) shelf for literally YEARS and yet still drank well the other night. simple easy drinker Sangiovese.

Nice easy drinker, a bit past peak now, should have been better one or two years back. Shows a muted but fruity nose with red fruits, figs and cherries, and a slightly hint of flowers. The mouth is very fresh, lightly acidic and with a very fruity midpalate. Had this one with a two course dinner, it was perfect for the Caponata Bruscettas first, but it lacked structure and body for Chicken and Saussage Cacciatore. A nice cheap wine with decent QPR, should go well with mildly spiced tomato based italian dishes.

Color is good (4/5). Taste: Very balanced (15/20). Aroma: Good (10/15) Overall consistency/quality/room for improvement (5/10). Needed to sit overnight. Great value.
The wine looks Crimson colored. The legs are Slow. It smells like Blueberry, Raspberry, Red Currant, Cherry, Black Pepper, Cinnamon, and Rose. It tastes like Blackberry, Blueberry, Red Currant, Cherry, Black Pepper, and Cinnamon. The body is Medium. The wine is textured Silky. The wine finishes Medium.

A little sharp, could use a breather. Somewhat light and bright, red cherries, medium bodied, one-dimensional.
