Outstanding wine. Great floral bouquet. Ultra smooth. Very low tannins and acidity. Lingering finish. All around smooth, great tasting wine. Ready to drink now.

This was really rough out of the gate, but after about 30-45 min it started to come around. Tasty dark berries and bark, this wine delivered what I expected, a decent bottle of wine to go with dinner that did not break the bank. Still I prefer the Ripassa for about $7 more quite a bit more.

Good, solid, classic sangiovese sweet black fruit, turns nicely mildly tart with tanins, a bit of smoke and chocolate on the finish.

Dark friut on the nose with licorice and spice. meek mid-palate and unexceptional that fizzes quickly.

Pleasing but nothing particularly special. Light, tasty, has Old World taste I like. Will probably try others before rushing to re-buy.
