Top Notes For

8.7

First day was blah (might have been because was tasted after another wine). Second day really enjoyed it. Bright, fruity, and acidic. Decent tannins that provide some tartness and structure. Not a unique wine. But a very nice weekday wine that went well w meatballs, bread, and red sauce. The palate/taste is much better than the nose.
