The wine looks garnet colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like blackberry. It tastes like blackberry, black currant (cassis) and blackberry. The body is medium/full. The wine has leathery texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has medium acidity.

Great bright red, although initially striking me as energetic and light on the palate, it had enough depth of body/structure to hold up over a whole meal (cheese course, primavera pasta, lamb chops). I enjoyed this as much as a more expensive Brunello we also opened. Purchased on the recommendation of a wine clerk. Great value. 13.5%

Very bright, medium to light body. Fruity and acidic. Vaguely like a Cabernet Franc. Okay with food, but not sure what it would go well with.

Purple in the glass, full bodied, black fruits, berries, currant, cacao, hint of licorice, dusty robust tannins, long finish. Very nice.
