Clear, deep ruby in color with a garnet rim. Clean, with pronounced primary and secondary aromas of cherry, tomato leaf, tabacco, and balsamic. This wine is dry, with high acidity, medium tannins, medium alcohol, medium body, and medium flavor intensity. It has primary and secondary flavors of black cherries, strawberries, and clay pots with a medium finish. Overall, this wine is balanced, and complex. I would rate it as good.

In Rome - Vatican/EUR - the wine is easy to drink, but possesses a low-key bouquet.

First bottle: Not a great smell, a bit Smokey. Second bottle was good so I increased my eating
