Opened at 4, decanted at 4:30, served at 6:30 Big, bold, as expected opened up with the decant, dark fruit, tight palate but not quite the dry sharp tannin that is usually present. Overall quite nice and went well with the steak dinner

Really nice, really big, really tannic, lots of extract, everything here. Not for the faint of heart, (Sagrantino in general) but eeks out some nice balance in this dark brooding wine. And by no means is this the biggest Sagrantino. This is probably right in the middle. Very enjoyable. Cody's Italian Wine Class Seattle

Big but balanced (tannin, acid, fruit). Red fruit, cinnamon, woody herbs. Asking for stewed red meat. Smells and tastes more like a new world wine than a lot of Italian wine.
