Used Venturi but probably didn't benefit from it. Quite acidic but drank it without food. Would probably taste much more balanced with tomato-based Italian food.

- Crimsom color with fast forming legs and aromas of licorice anise, bell pepper, black olive and tobacco. It's somewhat balanced and has flavours of soy sauce, molasses and black pepper with a medium body. Leathery texture with a medium finish - very soft Sangiovese.

- Ruby color with medium forming legs and aromas of cedar, raisin and black currant. It's balanced and has flavours of oak, bacon, black pepper, licorice anise and raisin with a medium body. Round texture with a medium finish - decanted for 2 hours. pencil shavings, raisin and current nose. the finish is short, but the wine is well rounded, showing well now, probably best to drink now, at the peak.
Not typically deep, rich Sangiovese, lighter and more round edges.

Light on aromas, but a little dried cherry and herb come through. Medium body on the palate with bright and vibrant cherry flavors. A slightly dirty rustic feel on the finish.

Excellent finish with nice structure. Still benefitting from bottle aging. Enjoyed with Osso Bucco and Veal Marsala

Good. Nice bouquet. Not the smoothest of wines. Slightly sharper. Quite deep in taste.

Soft, medium bodied wine. Smoky, with rich cherry tones. A short finish, the wine is drinking extremely well right now.

Very nice, light Sangiovese (hence the name Piccolo). Lots of fruit on the nose and a very smooth finish. Pairs well with my sausage and peppers.
