Popped and poured with carryout from our local Italian joint. Light crimson color. Cherry, sandalwood and sawdust notes. Medium-bodied with soft tannins and flavors of spice, red berries, and something like a cross between cedar and balsa wood. Decent acidity. Worked well enough with supper. A decent weeknight quaff.

I really like this wine but it is starting to fade. Approachable right out of the bottle but not much tannic structure left, dead on second day. Drink up because the party is almost over.

Big, polished, smooth, low acidity, bordering flabby. A well made nero in a somewhat 'international' style.
Easy drinking and good pairing with BBQ.
