  A good one. Consistent- earthy with cherries. Tasty tannin notes as it opens up.

  Pale garnet color. High acid. Notes of wet earth and red cherries. Leaves a little to be desired with the body and finish but to me this is a great food wine. Better than other bottles I’ve had in this price range. I bought it to see what kind of wine Tony Soprano drinks and I’m pleasantly surprised.

  Ordered a bottle at an old school Italian restaurant in Chicago (Bruna's) with Otis and our wives. This served a little too warm at first but we chilled it down and it showed much better. A great match with the Bucatini Amatriciana that I ordered. Rich texture with cherry, violet and plum notes. Integrated tannins with an earthy finish. Better than the 2018 Fontodi that I had the day before. 90 points.
