Savory aroma and brick red color. Plenty of acid, red fruit, soft chalky tannins. Good Italian eating wine. Finish isn’t overly long, but I enjoy the berry and tomato leaf notes.

Purplish color. Came out of bottle with a smell of expo marker and some oak. Initial taste, wine is hot, just grape on the palate. Good acid, but not enough tannin and limited finish. The expo burnt off as it opened up, but the nose was still lacking. Still too much alcohol, but got some notes of chocolate and blueberry.
