Lavender, wet earth, mushroom, dark cherry, leather. Medium + tannins and acidity, round mouthfeel, medium + finish. Still young, but powerful and a great value!

Cherry, raspberry, currant, blackberry, mossy earth and hints of licorice. Good structure and moderate tannins.

Great value in an everyday red wine for the table. Sangiovese is the major influence

Excellent value from Northern Tuscany. Full and dense, but vibrant and balanced. Sangiovese/Cabernet. Less than $20

Full body firm tannins like chewing matches black berry intense need to be pair with gamey food or a dish with a rich sauce to soften it
