  See previous note. Italian Bordeaux. One of my best “ordinary” wine buys ever. The last bottle, except for the magnum.

  Quite stacked and packed, showing a good sense of terrior. Will continue to improve. Always impressive for the price. 92++pts.

  I am going to miss this wine. It has been a staple in my cellar. Think Italian Bordeaux, at a very reasonable price point. Easy to drink. Pairs well with food, but just as good on its own. I also especially enjoy it during cold weather. I like pouring a big glass, one-third of the bottle.

  Simply great wine! Drank next to two other more expensive Italian wines, and this likely won. I bought two cases of this, and now I wish that I had more.

  Very nice Sangiovese blend, at good price point. Still very good on second night which tells me it can survive a few more years or a nice decant. Paired with an Alfredo sauce, it was perfect.
