Consistent thru vintage, nothing exciting here, fairly well executed, if a bit fruit forward and lacking some of the earth secondary aromas & flavors that make Sangiovese unique (and food friendly) - still a great value

Primarily Sangiovese with small amounts of Canaiolo and Cabernet Sauvignon blended in. Dark ruby color. Aromas of dark cherries, violets and leather. Black fruit (cherry, blackberry and plum) on the palate along with notes of iron and earth. Full bodied. Firm tannins and high acidity levels. Reasonable.

Surprising. Very drinkable before and during dinner. Lighthouse Liquors.

Colby thinks plum. Fruity. We both like this a lot.
