Not bad. Good. Not extraordinary but it’s gonna go with Uber eats fries. The tannins , acid, alcohol and body are all in sync. It’s just not complex. But it’s fun and drinkable. Just missing the elements I usually look to a Chianti Classico to equal fun (balsamic, flowers, more animal and tarter fruit). But do-able if you need a grocery store vino.

A good dependable value priced Italian favorite. A little rough at first but worked well with the gourmet Mexican fare at Tempo Urban Kitchen.
