Light bodied but bouquet is spicy almost curry-like, tastes intensely oaky, peppery, with leathery mouth feel, finishing with still some tannins despite 8 years in the bottle. Love this complex red — 3 years ago

Well this bottle cost me a Nickel as it was my Birthday Wine bottle from Total wine. For this price, this is pretty good. Actually, even for the retail price of $15 it’s pretty good. Red fruit, leaves, wet stones, stewed fruits, nice body and acidity. Medium finish. — 3 months ago

It's crazy the number of wines sub 20 bucks down here. Cooked at home tonight in the AirBnB... 3 solid bottles. And hey, the dinner ...? Not too shabby for an 1/8th Italian dude.
So, I think 92 points seems to be my threshold down here in Puglia. Above that will be a standout.
