Community Tasting Note

Sunday, November 20, 2016 - Cheap but not worth it. Initial taste is not unpleasant, I'd say standard Sangiovese qualities, but just not much "there" there. No body or finish to speak of. It's not intolerable like some "two-buck" domestic wines, but, even for $5 or so, you can probably do better.

The description on the label "with a long, soft, smooth finish" makes me wonder what the Marketing guys were trying to pull. By "soft" and "smooth" I think they mean "imperceptible" and the "long" means you can keep trying for a "long time" but still not detect it.
