  10/8/2018 - Derek Darth Taster Does not like this wine: 86 Points

  Free & Easy night at ES BK. Pop and poured.
  Appearance is clear, pale intensity, ruby coloru. Legs.
  Nose not clean, with aromas of sweet overnight dried sweaty tee-shirt ?reduction, raspberry, black cherries, smoke. Youthful.
  On the palate, dry, high acidity, medium alcohol (13.5%), soft medium- tannins, medium body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of sweet black cherries and smoke. Very simple flavours. No complexity. Medium+ finish.
  I was thinking this was like some cross between a Beaujolais Cru and an easy drinking Etna Rosso. Not for ageing. Drink up. Could be better if the reduction blows off.
  Blend of Sangiovese and Ciliegiolo with some small quantities international grape varieties.
