Itaian Wines (Farpointe Cellar): This was one of the those wines with a great nose that did not follow through to the palate. The were aromas of raspberry, and cherry, along with hints of rose petal, vanilla, and cedar. The palate was very smooth, but the cedar tastes overpowered the cherry tastes. The tannins were very sofy, but the finish was not very long at all.

It may be past it's prime but it drank like a much heavier bodied wine. Thick cherry, earthy mouth with a soft leather to grape finish.

Nice drinker with pasta w/red sauce, but nothing very special. Agree with other comments about not living up to its nose.
