  February 20, 2013 - - Brick color with medium forming legs and aromas of mint, blackberry and oak. It's balanced and has flavours of vanilla, cherry, raspberry and strawberry with a medium/full body. Round texture with a short finish.

  September 22, 2012 - Best on the third day after opening--the 'vanilla oak' had receded by then. Very nice with pasta w tomato, mushrooms and sausage.

  July 26, 2012 - My experience way different than others here. Rich, powerful, dark chocolate and espresso bean dominates but pretty blackberry/currant floates on top. Sometimes overcooked fruit came through probably due to the hot vintage. Acidity is very Italian. Agree with other taster comments that BBQ/Pizza is way to go. Way better than it should be at this price--a real surprise. Scoured the interwebs for 6 more bottles. Would love for this to replace all my bargain wines.
