  Didn't change my opinion a bit...Had this following a very nice Chateauneuf du Pape, and I was worried that it wouldn't stand up...Well, it was definitely a tough bottle to follow, but the Kuleto Sangiovese did just fine...Not anywhere near as much terroir as the Chateauneuf du Pape, but definite notes of rosemary, cedar, figs...A real bargain at $19.99 at Wine Warehouse in Winter Park, Florida...Not cheap enough to be an everyday drinker, but definitely a great bottle for a nice pasta dinner with friends!

  Very nicely done wine...We had this while watching the sun go down over Napa Valley and Lake Hennessey...Kuleto Estate is MAGICAL, and everyone who has the chance should go there! We had this again at dinner in 'Frisco the next night against a very highly touted Italian Sangiovese at twice the price, and everyone at the table preferred the Kuleto. Very nice juice!

  A little bit of spicyness; definite cherries; a little too bright
