had this with the 16 tami frappato... moderate depth of color with ruby rim... aromatically lots of smoky, mossy, salty dark fruits... no new oak. on the palate medium acidity, full weight in the mid palate, moderate amount of firm tannins, low alcohol. another great, true to place and varietal, inexpensive italian wine... super smart taster told me when thinking of nero think of a "fire on the beach" to identify the varietal... this wine was that. again, great apr at 13 if looking for this style of wine... would guess the aromatic/taste profile of this wine wouldn't be to everyone's tastes however.

Really nice on first day, plenty of earth and exotic spice and dried fruits, balanced with minerality and acid. Fell off second day.
