Excellent qpr for $20. I wish I had bought more when they were available. Med-full bodied with well integrated acid and tannin. Taste of strawberry, maybe a very slight metallic flavor, and a long smooth finish.

A classic Rosso di Montalcino from a great producer at a really good QPR. Translucent Ruby with the omnipresent cherry and strawberry nose that includes a tinge of spice. Really nice on the palate with a fairly complex and structured mouthfeel bringing cherry, strawberry, clove and other spices to the mix. Nicely layered tannins and acids to deliver a medium long finish. Refreshing and tasty, it could use another year of so in the bottle to cool the acids.

Well balanced and pleasantly plump with flavors of cherry, licorice and iron that emerge from a more muted nose that shows a mix of red fruit and blue flowers, tinged with a touch too much alcohol.

Smells and tastes typical of its place. Solid acid and structure, suave mouthfeel, agreeable finish. Best enjoyed with a meal.
