‘Dry Red Wine’ it says on the back. Great! Heavy bottle. Must be a wine to age. Hope 4 years is enough. Hints of pie cherry and mineral water on the nose. Also rocks. Wet and dry rocks. It smells good. Balanced and inviting. Flavors are lovely. Dried herbs, tart berries, smoked blood oranges?, wild thyme? Lots of stuff. Clean and smooth. Tannins are nice. Dry but not drying. It’s a very nice Classico. Hit the spot with the classic spaghetti marinara too.
