June 19, 2018 - Actually better the second day. Nicely balanced CC with typical sour cherry front end and licorice back end. Enjoyed.

August 8, 2017 - A bit of a generic , fruity red. Lacks structure and the tannic edge that I associate with a good Italian wine. Pleasant but not distinguished

June 24, 2017 - Typical faded red colour. Mild cherry aroma. Great cherry/plum taste with nicely balanced acidity. Punchy but very little aftertaste. Good on its own and with sausage tomato pasta.
