A great versatile wine. Enjoy it on the deck under the stars with nice conversation with friends, with some cheese and crackers or with a classic Italian meal.

Not what I would expect for an Italian red blend. A little on the light side, with decent flavor but an average finish. Most likely a high percentage of Sangiovese grapes.

Dark purple with some hazy light brown note on the rim. Nose is marginal with sine graphite, oaks, tea leaves, and a touch of dark fruit maybe. Taste of bright acidity, plummy vinegar, some bittersweetness, some cherries, some black tea. Aftertaste of black tea, low in tannins, some oaky flavors, a touch of white pepper, and some residual sweetness, drink it now. I have no clue why the nose is missing, even after decanting.

Not a fan ... maybe just the bottles I had, but it had an off finish.

Nice taste. Slightly lighter than most Chiantis, but overall a good tasting wine
