in an evening of Piedmont wines, this stood out! so tasty, aromatic but with foresty and pine tar aromas. Red juicy fruit on the palate w earthy incense and spice. Def turpine presence!

Easy drinking, layered. Very light red wine, slightly oxidized color. Sangiovese base, citrus peel smell.

Wine is deep garnet. Smells like violet, decomposed bramble and slate. Immense aroma. Overwhelming. On the palate violet, cherry and strawberry. Elegant hermes leather and a touch of wet slate. Quite delicious. It wants to be a refined Sangiovese but it's more than that. Quite nice.

Pale garnet colour. Smells aromatic, red fruit sour cherries and cranberries. Tastes dry. Juicy red fruit long lasting with a hint of almonds. Excellent acidity makes for a lively glass. Quite boozy but doesn’t taste like it. Very fresh and crisp.

COOP Italy. Light garnet colour. A bit watery. Sharp cherries (rotting?...D) also berry ice cream/syrup. and damsons? Sharp and intense berry with something artificial like essence. Nice tannins and good mouthfeel.

Very fresh fruit and fresh flowers, not too ripe strawberry and cherry, almost semi carbonic maceration flavors. High alcohol, medium- finish, medium- tannins. Not my favorite style, but for sure a nice discovery.

Not too flowery. Sweet spices and red fruit to balance. Should not be served above 18 degrees

Medium ruby with orange rim. Perfume, cherry, raspberry, artificial flowers
Medium acidity, medium plus sugar, medium plus alcohol. My guess was 2013 Italian Lacrima

A real surprise, buckets of rich fruit, lush fragrance and depth.
