I wonder about bottle variation in this case, because I have to disagree with previous notes. This is an interesting wine. Open nose of cedar, and new leather, very appealing. A little dull on the palette, but with a very nice mix of glycerin against acid. Sangiovese typicity with red fruits and some veg. Some grabbing tannin, talk powder and limestone finish. Just the nose on this wine is worth the coin. Would be hard pressed to find a Chianti for example this pleasant for just over $10

Ok Sangiovese, but not exactly memorable. Very much a standard supermarket version af the appellation - although some semi-charming animal notes add a little character to the wine.

Rich ruby color in the glass. Nice Sangiovese flavors on the nose and in the mouth. Much enjoyed by my guests. Sorry that this is my last bottle.

Bland, unimpressive.
