| Community Tasting Notes (average 86.7 pts. and median of 88 pts. in 32 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by jenniaa on 3/24/2018 & rated 88 points: Solid. True to its character, streamlined, quality dark cherry fruit, no ostentation. Holding up well. Paired nicely with pork chops stuffed with pesto along roasted onions, tomatoes and balsamic. (1200 views) | | | Tasted by Ruubious on 7/9/2017: 4/5 - Drinking well, nice floral and earthy aromas. Quite smooth, with soft tannin.
Can sit longer. But nice now (1546 views) | | | Tasted by Sycamore on 8/24/2016 & rated 80 points: This bottle = relative "yuck". Quite stewed. Not a fan of pureed prunes, but that's what this particular bottle is noted for. Hope for better the next time around... (2206 views) | | | Tasted by Sycamore on 11/5/2015 & rated 90 points: Really liking this; excellent QPR. Great balance. Quite floral initially, then picks up some earthiness and a little anise. Drinking quite well now, but no apparent rush. (2486 views) | | | Tasted by UpfromtheCellar on 8/28/2014 & rated 90 points: I can't believe I haven't posted a review of this before. Its GREAT. Its one of my primo go to wines on a weekday night. Deep rich tannins, dark fruits, tobacco, bitter almonds that go on and on. Long finish. (2467 views) | | | Tasted by Ben Christiansen on 1/14/2013: Evergreen and dark cherry fruit, a bit stiff on the back of the palate (like a Vino Nobile should be), and then driving intensity. Wonder, but very driving. One for the celler perhaps? Works it out at $30 or so... (3892 views) | | | Tasted by UpfromtheCellar on 11/21/2012 & rated 91 points: Wonderful nose of dried cherries, with smooth, rich, smoooth deep tannins, cherries and oak on the palate. Years of life ahead. Very very nice. (2598 views) | | | Tasted by UpfromtheCellar on 7/4/2012 & rated 87 points: Easy to drink but nothing special. Perhaps it was the year? Mid weight, lacks bitter cherries or other defined fruits, enough acids to keep it rolling back towards your throat, short finish. Perhaps it was the bottle or something else but a bit of a disappointment. (3210 views) | | | Tasted by Halber on 6/5/2012 & rated 83 points: Disappointing, given the reviews I have read. Will try another to check whether my bottle was bad. (2725 views) | | | Tasted by Roundtrip on 3/10/2012 & rated 89 points: good bottle of wine - well balanced, easy to drink and seemed to be the right time to drink (3140 views) | | | Tasted by boreddoughboy on 2/16/2012 & rated 84 points: Over-ripe fruitbomb. Not impressive but decent. Spicy pepper fades into matured oakiness but still wafting immaturity. (1852 views) | | | Tasted by pulse_width on 2/3/2012: Silky texture, nimble, light weight, with big flavors and long finish (1103 views) | | | Tasted by fdizzy on 1/15/2012 & rated 81 points: fruit on the nose mixed with alcohol. nice ruby color. cherry and spice with heavy tannins on front of palate fades rather quickly to leave dry finish and aftertaste. for the $28 I expected more. (1267 views) | | | Tasted by fdizzy on 1/6/2012 & rated 72 points: nice ruby color in the glass. nice fruit on nose but also a bit hot. lots of tannins on the front, but collapses leaving a watery mess. (882 views) | | | Tasted by tendring on 10/27/2011 & rated 90 points: Wine Education Service - Tuscany (Imperial College): Just opaque, very youthful.
Vanilla and fruit, an attractive nose.
Very fruity, tannins under control, soft mid palate, quite long. Worth keeping a year or seven. (730 views) | | | Tasted by Amarone59 on 8/14/2011 & rated 90 points: Fra dn.no: Krydret duft med innslag av tre, nøtter, kirsebær og fiken. Flott fyldig frukt på smak med balanserte tanniner og pen lengde. En virkelig god basisvin som gir mye vin for pengene. Drikk nå til 2017. Passer til okse og lam. (1201 views) | | | Tasted by wino_tim on 3/25/2011 & rated 89 points: Light to medium bodied, but lively with a delicious mix of sweet red fruit, dried herb and anise flavors.

| SangioveseSANGIOVESE: (Pronounced "sahn-joh-vhe-se").
Sangiovese - Italy's claim to fame, the pride of Tuscany. Traditionally made, the wines are full of cherry fruit, earth, and cedar. It produces Chianti (Classico), Rosso di Montalcino, Brunello di Montalcino, Rosso di Montepulciano, Montefalco Rosso, and many others. Sangiovese is also the backbone in many of the acclaimed, modern-styled "Super-Tuscans", where it is blended with Bordeaux varietals (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc) and typically aged in French oak barrels, resulting a wine primed for the international market in the style of a typical California cabernet: oaky, high-alcohol, and a ripe, jammy, fruit-forward profile.[16]
Semi-classic grape grown in the Tuscany region of Italy. Used to produce the Chianti and other Tuscan red wines. Has many clonal versions, two of which seem to predominate. The Sangiovese Grosso clone Brunello variety is used for the dark red, traditionally powerful and slow-maturing "Brunello di Montalcino" wine. The other is the Sangiovese Piccolo, also known under the historical synonym name Sangioveto, used for standard Chianti Classico DOC wines. Old vine derived wine is often used in the better versions, needing several years ageing to reach peak. A third clone, Morellino, is used in a popular wine blend with the same name found in the southern part of the province. Recent efforts in California with clones of this variety are very promising, producing medium-bodied reds with rich cherry or plumlike flavors and aromas. Among the available clonal versions are R6 and R7, derived from the Montalcino region of Italy, having average productivity/ripening and producing small berries on medium size clusters. R10 and R24 are well-recommended. R23, listed as deriving from the Emilia-Romagna region, has good vigor with medium-small clusters with earlier ripening. R102 derives from the Montepulciano region and reported to have average vigor with moderate productivity that results in higher sugar levels and good acidity from medium-small berries on medium-small clusters. Has synonym name of Nielluccio where grown in Corsica.Italy Italian Wines (ItalianMade.com, The Italian Trade Commission) | Italian Wine Guide on the WineDoctorTuscany Tuscany (ItalianMade.com) | TuscanytVino Nobile di Montepulciano Website of the Consorzio del Vino Nobile di Montepulciano
