3/22/8/3/4 +50 =89 pts.

9/16 a jug wine from Umbria but has a good dose of Sag. Better than most wines 2 or 3 x the $. Paid 2o in Ontario last year. Anyone growing sag in Cali?

Quality vintage for dark fruit and good grippy tannin

Made with 70% Sangiovese, 15% Sagrantino, 10% Merlot and 5% Colorino. Dark fruit, dried herbs, and underlying hints of smoke and leather. Good freshness and drying tannins on the finish. Tasty but not much complexity. Good weeknight wine.

Deep red color with a hint of purple. Medium legs, medium body and very balanced without any sediment. First nose of cherry with a hint of violet and spice. Easy drinking with cherry, raspberry, red fruits with a bit of earthiness and a hint of vanilla. Polished and finishes beautifully.

Purchased at Bocale winery

Light ruby in color with medium legs and low acidity. Light to medium body red. No sediment with a silky, short finish. First nose is truffle and mushroom. Tastes like red fruit, raspberry, strawberry, cherry with hints of truffle or mushroom.

Warming up to this. Still fairly tannic. Sweet strawberry aromatics.

Earthy clove and vanilla over a touch of blackberry.

Great choice for the 2nd choice of the wine dinner - wonderful smooth great daily drinker

Great red blend, surprisingly well composed for a blend of 4 styles
