Apr 16th, 2022Blend of 90% Sangiovese, 5% Merlot and 5% Colorino, deep Ruby with aromas of berry fruits and spicy floral notes. On the palate flavors of black cherry fruit with pepper and cinnamon, lively acidity with firm tannins. Medium finish ending with fruit and slight oaky character.

Dec 7th, 2021Made bolognese tonight and this was a perfect pairing. Light tannins with mellow cherry overtones. Went well with dinner and I would buy this one again in a heartbeat. This was the 2019 in March of 2023.

Aug 1st, 2023Easy. . . This bottle was easy to taste, easy to enjoy and easy to finish. It very complex, some hints of licorice, cherry, dark berry, leather, but overall simple. Normally that is not what I’m looking for but this “simple” and “easy” were just right.
