Color is medium lemon. This wine needs to be a little warmer to release the aroma. Medium to deep grass, a hint of green pepper but also some passion fruit and honey. Medium to high acidic. Dry with medium alcohol and body. Medium intensity in taste with similar but added some wet stone. Definitely a little bit of barrels.

Color is medium purple. After 20 minutes, the nose has this pronounced violet, black plum, black cherry with some sun dried tomato. Little bit of charred wood. Some dried fruit as well. Taste is dry, medium to high tannins, medium to high acidity, full body (not too full). Taste is similar to the nose but the sun dried tomato and dried plum stands out. Lingering finish. A little too sweet for my palate but nevertheless a well made dinner wine, well worth the price.

Color is pale garnet. Pronounced aroma of ripe red fruit, dried leaf, little bit of oak vanilla. Taste is acidic with pronounced sour cherry, wet stone, dried fruit. Body is medium-light, but tannin is high. Typical Sangiovese. However, the finishing is short, and that's a bummer.
The price point is something that you cannot complaint.

PnP but doesn't change much after 40 mins.
