Perhaps never a terrific wine but clearly I waited too long to drink this wine. Lacked fruit. Color wasn't bad or overly brown. Left a dryness to the palette which made it difficult to finish the bottle.

What a surprise. Because I knew nothing of this wine or wine from Molise, I had no expectation. I ate an entrecote and the bottle was delightful. It is full bodied without being jammy. The color dark red without being purple. There was nothing special about the nose but the wine was well balanced. I can't even remember where I bought this wine, but I will look for another case.
