Deep Ruby color with aromas of berry fruit and earthy herb spice. On the palate flavors of cherry and raspberry, savory with cacao notes. Dusty tannins, medium finish ending savory with fruit and herb mineral spice.

Medium plus ruby color; cherries, earth, and raspberries on the nose; light to medium acidity; mild tannins; tastes like cherries, cranberries, and a hint of green herbs with a long finish. Nellie didn't like it.

Second vintage of this wine that I have tried within the past week. Blend of Sangiovese (85%), Cabernet Sauvignon (10%) and Merlot (5%). Medium ruby color. Aromas and flavors of violets, ripe dark berries and plums, bramble, leather, orange zest, fresh sage, tea, vanilla and baking spices. Medium bodied and finish. Soft tannins and silky texture. Solid firmness and pretty well balanced. Nice consistency and excellent QPR!
