Medium to light ruby red. A bit of sour cherries on the nose with earth and spices. Quite a bit of acidity with medium tannins (5/10) and a medium minus body. Similar notes on the palate as the nose with some dried leaves. Medium length finish. Drink now.

Bought this in the neighborhood supermarket in Rome. Firm tannins. Probably needs to open up more.

Found it on sale in empire mall in KL. Like a ray of sunshine among wines available in Malaysia.

Decant it and leave it alone for a bit. Otherwise the fruit is way too much! Once it is stretched -- it is beautiful.

Less fruit forward than I expected (slight cherry nuance), more floral, earthy and herbal. Well structured - great value for the price!

Home run for the price. Ripe fruit, firm acids and super refined tannins. Hints of ash and tomato leaf add complexity to the nose.

90% Prugnolo Gentile (Sangiovese) and 10% other red grapes. Bright red berry fruit with forest floor & musty earth. Really good!
