  In a word, delicious. Was worried that it might be past prime, but it's going strong. Dare I say, perhaps it's even yet on the way up? Still plenty of fruit, and some nice secondaries coming into play. I've had younger versions of this (which I thought had plenty of age) that didn't show as well, as they were hotter and unsettled.

  Simply put a great wine value. This is better than many of their Cabernet's ( which cost double). a mouthful of blackberry, strawberry and cassis with a strong aromatic of cooked cherries. Very smooth and lingering flavors of cherry and blackberry for 30+ seconds

  Not your typical Sangiovese. Much lower in acidity than your typical Chianti and brighter fruit That said, this had great flavor and worked well as an aparatif and with the lamb stew we had that night. I would highly recommend everyone give this a try.
