  Consumed two bottles on different occasions, performed consistently. A classically styled rosso with lots of cherry, leather, bamboo wood and herbal hints. Lively on the palate with medium body. It's a great weekday pizza wine.

  The nose showed bright cherry and strawberry up front with lifting dried red florals, cedar and brown spice. On the palate, I found soft, light-weight textures with zesty acidity giving way to tart cherry, hints of savory herbs and saline-minerality. The finish was medium-long with a bitter herbal twang, lingering acidity and the slightest hint of heat.

  18 months have improved this wine significantly. This now strikes me as a very elegant, floral expression of Sangiovese. The finish now seems more in line with the medium bodied, restrained palate.

  Dark red fruits initially with some rusticness. Tannins were mostly resolved. Wine was drank rather quickly so not able to see it evolve, but a really well made wine. Would go with any typical red sauce pasta dish and on this night held up well against a lasagna.
