Community Tasting Note

  May 13, 2013 - Classic sangiovese, with sour cherries, well-oiled leather, maybe a touch of mossy forest. At this point the wine is showing young, but perfectly drinkable. Delightfully silky on the tongue, and in many ways reminiscent of Caprili's Brunellos. The only point at which it's clear that this is something less than its big brothers is in the finish, which, though pleasant, is thin and underwhelming compared to the Brunellos. This is a great value and a fine way to enjoy well-made sangiovese from a terrific maker on nights when you can't bring yourself to open a Brunello. Almost too good, and it's almost too tempting to properly follow it up...
