Top Notes For
2010 vintage. Aged in steel tanks but not much fruit on the palate. It's a very smooth wine and goes well with red pasta sauces and white sauces with mushroom.
For me, there could have been a little for acidity for bite. Because of the lack if bite, it was getting close to being flat.
That makes sense because the wine is already 4 years old and was unoaked.
I'd buy it again for $17 or less. Not worth paying more.

Nose showed sour fruit, laced with dried herbs. Palate was balanced, medium acid, black fruit, and the classic Nero tannins. Was warm with a long finish. Good value at under $18.
