I would call this a Nebbiolo if blind. Lovely nose of sweet cherry, orange peel, dried autumn leaf, baking spice, and very light barnyard. Medium to full body. Tasted very youthful on the palate with fresh acidity and good fruit intensity. Tannins start to resolve and lingers around on the long finish.
A blend of Merlot and Sangiovese. This should hold for another 5-8 years.

Bought on our honeymoon at the vineyard. Enjoying 2004 on our 10th anniversary! Dry, middle of the road flavors, very Italian to me.

Very good. Extremely dry. Nice blend of Sangiovese to merlot. 2006 switched to more Sangiovese less merlot. Excellent
