I thought this wine was interesting coming form s. Italy. It needs a little time decanting to blow off the alcohol ...strong fruity and it will be good with a pasta dinner... for the price not bad...if you do not like a strong wine..stay away...

- Brick color with slow forming legs and aromas of smokey, raspberry, cherry and tobacco. It's somewhat balanced and has flavours of blackberry and black currant with a full body. Leathery texture with a long finish - pure Italian nose. Leather belt finish. Very dry.

Nothing really faulty here, just a bit boring. Not much on the nose. Light bodied on the palate with red fruits and a bit of smoke. Simple quaff without much drive or length. Inexpensive, at least. On day 2 this got a bit worse. Almost a sensation of oxidation on the finish.

Much better after 1 hour of air. Good ruby color and medium body. Funky, forest floor, wild flowers. Nice acidity. Solid wine. Drink soon.
