As this opens up, it's that classic sciaccarellu fruit. Wild strawberries and stones. Get it. Look at that ruby color!! #shockarocku

9.1

Floral, bright, red fruit, and just the perfect amount of tannin to almost, but not quite melt away with a delicious Bolognese. Plenty of acidity to refresh the palate. Bargain.

Pleasant, crispy. Certainly doesn't match their Nebbiolo for interest and distinction.

Bright red fruits such as cherries & raspberries. Eucalyptus. Some minerality. Lighter than I expected. Elegant soft finish.
