Overall pretty unenthused by this bottle, especially since I’d recently had this grape while in Italy and loved it. This bottle lacked good acidity and intensity. Left me wanting much more.

Terrific week-night red and zippy alternative to CA Cab. Mostly Sangiovese but a dallop of merlot adds a little richness we wanted with burgers. Lifted with good fruit purity & depth. Tank aged. 13.5% alc. I'll grab more of this for just $16 locally.

Lemon rind notes, citrus perhaps grapefruit. Buttery little bit in the finish, mineral driven wine. Central Italy in a bottle.

Beautifully pure and red fruited this is showing notes of red cherries, strawberries, some tobacco, spices and flowers. Medium bodied with good freshness of medium-high acidity and some medium- tannin. Lovely Sangiovese at a good price.

Vibrant, savoury and deeply fruited, tasting of sour cherries infused with bright acidity. Nevertheless it does develop some richness on the mid-palate, with a delicious sour/bitter edge on the finish. A wine with bite and rather tasty for it. CHP 87 pts

Be ware of first impressions!
Initially it was very purple and tasted OK although generic. Then things changed up quickly after it breathed for 15-20 minutes.

The wine developed into a much fuller and satisfying deep garnet red wine with good acid level and fairly prominent tannins for the variety. It is a straightforward, predictable, clean, without distracting defects.

After the wine breathed I raised my rating. The wine is certainly far more worthy than the many fashionable, more costly medium light reds.

Deep garnet color, notes of crushed flowers, tobacco leaf, plum, figs, sweet spices, some cedar wood. Pretty full bodied and dense, with medium+ acidity and mediun+ tannin that is a little rough around the edges. Nice length too. At 30 EUR in a restaurant i am not complaining.. :-)

Romagna 2020 - 30 TN !!!: Rosso rubino. Naso centrato sulla frutta sotto spirito, specchio dell'annata calda. Al palato si presenta robusto, ma bilanciato, con una buona freschezza e tannini integrati. Un potpourri floreale accompagna il sorso in chiusura.

Weekly tasting group RWP #356: 6 random whites and 6 random reds as a blind test (@ My place): In the bouquet still cherries. On the palate cherries, red and dark berries, some coffee, good acidity and length. Soft tannin. What a pleasant surprise!

Deep ruby color. Ripe berries on the nose with a touch of herb. Medium bodied on the palate, juicy and friendly. Good weeknight wine.

100% Sangiovese, light red color and fairly light bodied wine. Drank without food but might be better with food.

Dried herbs, medium tannins, small red fruits. Not overly fresh. If you are holding this wine now it is time to drink up. Easy to drink but easy to forget

If anything, this has improved over the last 4 years. Drank over about 2 hours. This smelled like candied apricot without any overt or cloying sweetness. The palate was so rich and inviting (poached pears and spices) while still maintaining energy and almost dryness in the finish. It is frankly amazing how clean this drinks. Just a WOW wine at this point.

I must be in a grumpy wine tasting streak as this btl disappointed me tonight too, where previously I enjoyed it quite a lot. Tonight's blt seemed overwhelmed by new oak and felt distinctly modern in style vs prior btls.

Serviceable central Italy dry white from one of many Italian grapes most of us have never heard of, Albana. Darker gold than you would expect for a 2015 white but very fresh. Stony minerality with some stone fruit flavors. Not a lot of range. Paid $15, prefer it for around $10 or less. Personally, I'd rather pay a few dollars more and drink AOC Chablis any day of the week. There is a sameness to many Italian whites that leave me wanting. I'll keep exploring Italian whites but rarely find one to fall in love with.

My wine shop guy said this is great and, he was right. PnP and smells great. 1st sip promising. Light ruby color. Remarkable balance, purity, mouthfeel and depth for the lowly $15 I paid on sale. Looks like it can be had for even less on the net. Higher elevation Sangiovese located within 5 miles of the Adriatic coast in Romagna, not, Tuscany. Great nose, tobacco, licorice, mineral, pepper and more flavors I couldn't nail on a vibrant, at most, mid weight frame. Just terrific. If hadn't already gorged myself on Nita's spaghetti I could have drunk a mag of this with it. Great stand alone or with food. Really classy wine, drinking more like an expensive Brunello with age on it. Ready to go right now and stunning sangiovese for the price. 92+ AlC 13.5%. Cheap rubber cork does not reflect on how good this is but very cool that its a "ready for primetime" wine, right now. Going back for three more soon.

Pas mal du tout dans un style costaud. On retrouve les tons du sangiovese toscan, mais dans une enveloppe plus noire, avec plus d'alcool et une constitution plus robuste. Bien.
