  Good Sangiovese blend for the money. Even at 5 yrs this is not quite ready yet. Will be better in 2023.

  Italian Wine Scholar Class at the Texas Wine School. A blend of 70% Sangiovese, 15% Sagrantino and 15% Merlot. Med (+) ruby with a garnet rim. Developing, with red cherry, blackberry, tobacco and sweet baking spices (thanks to twelve months of aging in Slavonian oak casks and French barrique). Dry, but fruit forward and rounded. Med. acidity, med to med (+), polished but drying tannins, and med alcohol (13%). Med (+) body, concentration and length, with a licorice note on the finish. It is still drinking well and is likely to continue to improve over the next couple of years. Very good QPR.

  Good everyday drinker; about $16
  It’s a blend of 70% Sangiovese, 15% Sagrantino, 15% Merlot
  Tastes of sour black cherries, old fashioned “Tab cola” and menthol
  Still quite tannic. Medium bodied. Although 13% alcohol, a bit hot upon opening; better on day 2.
