This took an hour in the decanter to loosen up. Then rich, earthy, dark berries and deep woods pine forest scents emerge. Mouthfilling and savory more than fruity. Dark gravelly minerals take the lead over dark macerated dried cherry fruit. Fair amount of soft tannin. Very clingy finish.
UPDATE: Night 3 this is utterly compelling. Just a beautiful wine.

Dinner with Roy Michelle Italian place. Red fruit floral notes. Light on its feet. Nice with veal and even fish.

Nice medium to slightly fuller body, soft earthy tones with fair amount of tannin- initially a bit acrid needs to breathe a bit then smoothens out with dark fruit

Red fruits, little bit of oak, medium+ finish and some nice acid = a nice, sub $25 bottle. Recommended if you’re looking for a brighter, fruit forward Sangiovese.

A bit disappointing. Not a lot of structure.
