Smells of dusty cellar
Light bodied, this is truly a table wine meant for drinking for simple enjoyment.
Don’t think too hard, and enjoy the cherry hazelnut jolly rancher. Dry, nutty tannins.

Loads of mulch and mulled fruit mix with tea, subtle wood spice, leather, and mineral on the palate. Delicious.

More depth and tannin than the Riparosso. Deep cherry showing mulled characteristics with earthy depth and tannin heft. More Cabernet-like on the palette. Really enjoyable and balanced

Correct balance of tannin and fruit....great choice for someone looking for a traditionally styled Italian red
