By the process of elimination, I got the country of origin and producer right. Varietal was a little difficult with these natty reds for me, but I had a inkling with my initial guess on origin being the south of France (it’s Carignan). Wine itself was red-fruited and juicy with bright acidity and a touch of savoury twang. Didn’t find it particularly layered but I could drink a lot of this easily. — 2 years ago
Not particularly impressive in the blind - blocky, lacking elegance, and clearly Italian. Had an inkling it was a Brunello given the group I was with. It did eventually reveal some delectable elements by the end of the night. Red-fruited and saline with some oaky spice, yet I felt its energy was drained by too much dry tannins, plum-ish and earthy characters. One to revisit, though my limited experience with this producer so far has been rather lacklustre. — 2 years ago
My true Lambrusco love - earthy (farty) crunchy red berries and pomegranate, super dry, juicy acid, great level of frizz. Woven cloth label is not to be ignored. This is such a killer food wine - muffaletta sandwich from Lucca for lunch and leftover Indian for dinner. Detecting an inkling of mouse at dinner so drink quickly. Shouldn’t be hard. — 5 years ago
Very fruity and delicious. Mild earthyness and full bodied. Dark berries and medium alcohol taste. Full nose as far as bouquet. Damn good can especially for the price. Must have again! — 9 years ago
Salinity, oyster shell, orange essence, lemon verging on drawn butter, beeswax, white roses and hydrangea. Near creamy finish, but pith-large and drying grapefruit reel any inkling in.

On the nose there's cranberries and an inkling of tannins.
Rich flavors of cocoa and velvety oak blend with dark chocolate and raspberry. — a year ago
