Med nose with aroma's of spiced wood, leather, dark cherry, blueberry and strawberry. In the mouth aroma's of tabacco also appear. Med acidity, med tannins, Med- body, med intensity, med+ aftertaste. Refreshing wine that is complex enough to keep one interested. Still ageable but I like the balance it has at this moment.

I've had 3 vintages of this wine and my notes remain consistent. Thoroughly modern, slick, big fruited, oak at least 'present' if not noticeable. I like to know I'm drinking Sangiovese so expect some acidity, herbs and light game. This wine, however, drinks more like a generic modern red albeit very well put together. Slightly hard marks on my scale.

Hawaii Vacation; 8/29/2022-9/19/2022 (Lahaina, Maui): By the glass at a restaurant. Decent Sangiovese, nothing complex or special but medium bodied, medium tannin, medium-plus acidity; medium-minus finish. Slightly oxidative but not sure if this bottle has been open for a few hours or a day. 85

Good blue fruits and a touch of chalk on the nose. Good and simple wine to drink

Beautifully balanced Sangio. Had open over a three night duration and held up nicely
