Grapey and primary, this shows a lot of black cherry fruit with a slight figgy quality, lively acidity and a touch of heat. Decidedly more modern in feel than the Radici Taurasi wines I've had in the past and loved, but this is younger too. Likable, fruity, with a touch of savory earth. Will try again tomorrow night at slightly cool temperature.

Fruit, minerality, dark carmel; a very nice wine on the nose. Fresh, lively fruit on the palate. Medium alcohol, and minerality with a well balanced lively acidity. Tannins are medium mild adding to the a well rounded structure to this wine. Finish is medium and very pleasant with medium low complexity. This is an approachable, well balanced wine that does not require food. Would be well received at a get together as I could seen it being a crowd pleaser as it very flavorful without any overbearingness to speak of. A 91 is not out of the question with this.
