I haven't had a Cesanese in like... 15 years.
Inky. Dark fruit. Plenty of earthiness.

A great value and a wonderful food wine - medium body, fresh acidity, soft tannins and lots of red cherry, black cherry, violet, red plum and forest floor. Great wine for pasta with Ragu

A great representation of the style. Ripe raspberry and spice, soft acidity and medium tannins. Highly drinkable.

Had never heard of the Cesanese grape and what a nice surprise! Dark ripe fruits, blackberries, ripe plum, cloves and grippy tannins. This is an excellent wine with za’atar lemon bbq chicken.

Balanced, versatile food wine. Paired with a rosemary-heavy Roman chickpea/tomato stew. I always forget how dark this variety can be given how light bodied the wine is (onions took on a deep magenta/purple color during deglazing), making it basically the inverse of Nebbiolo. A rustic, guilty pleasure sort of wine (adored by popes and pornstars per Ian D’Agata’s notes): red vines and flat cherry coke (aka ripe cherries, raspberries, bruised Macintosh apple, vanilla, baking spices) and a hint of earth.

Medium everything, in all of the right places. Soft l, dark fruits, lean finish with pop of acidity. Perfect drinking wine as we wait for the night to take off!
