Good full red. Plum, apricot and nuts on the nose. Clean and fairly full in the mouth, with noteworthy flavor intensity of herbs and red fruit. Lively suggestions of spicy licorice on the juicy, increasingly tannic close. (Ian D'Agata, Vinous, August 2019)

Rich, tart and heavy. Not fave, didn’t taste as fresh and light as I like.

The kind of simple, tasty, clean Italian red that you don’t find very often in the States.
