I might be tempted to call it a Sangiovese if blinded on it, but I was rather shocked how good this was for the price...

Wouldn’t say it really drinks like Barolo, but for an inexpensive Rossi, I’ve had much worse $13 wines

Thinking it was a problem with this bottle rather than the wine as a whole. Purchased from Trader Joe. Cork was in bad shape. Wine was off color and rasted both corky and sour. Not a good one.

Just as before, this is great if you love a dry, earthy, powerful, full bodied red. From Trader Joe’s! Tasted 13 October 2022.

Wonderful full bodied flavor, with nice oaky bite. Lots of earthy tone, and very dry. Long on the palate. Tasted 7 March 2022

Somewhat lighter bodied, probably more medium. Smokey. Cherry. Not bad. Good with pork probably. Dry. Not my favorite, but definitely good.

Color is light. Nose: very clear cherry, some savoury spice. Simple. Taste: light, simple, a little yeasty and floral. It tastes “Italian.” Simple but good. “Balanced.” 88.

Rather tasty buy from Traders Joe’s in Cleveland. Cherry, dirty leather. Would definitely drink again.
