Decanted for approximately 30 minutes. A sweet nose of red fruits and flowers. Nothing extraordinary on the palate but well put together and balanced. An easy drinker for sure. Paired this new world sangiovese up against an old world BDM (2007 Casanova di Neri) which outclassed this Del Dotto effort quite handedly. Still a nice quaff and well made. Would recommend with pizza on a Friday night.

Absolutely stunning wine, easily 5+ more years for it.

Within the context of California full-fruit style, this is one of the very best Sangiovese bottles we've had in a long, long time.

Still young I would say. Delicious black cherry lots of berry layers. Very different from what you get in Chianti. Yum.

Darker and richer than a typical italian sangiovese. Medium to full body. Could use another couple of years in the cellar.
