IGT Sangiovese young vines. 14.5 this vintage. Don’t love that. A bit of vulcanized rubber initially, blows off. Kind of muddled flavors. Decent but the Massolino dolcetto is so much better for the same price. // edit: completely undrinkable on day two.

Pure bright clean delicious. I prefer this to their Rosso di Montalcino (slightly younger vines here) and it’s $10 cheaper.

A light, bright fruity wine. Good for drinking without food.

2015 is a good year, this rosso is great bang for buck on a daily wine

Cherries, earth. Easy, drinking while prepping pasta and fresh tomato sauce. $14 at K&L.

When I first opened it, there was green stuff on the bottom of the cork. But I love wine so I was undeterred. I aerated it as it's only 2 years old. Turns out there's tons of.... Stuff in it. I don't want to say sediment because the pieces are kind of big. Well it's alcohol right? Should be okay to drink.

Good news is it smells like sangiovese. The taste is just okay. To be honest the green stuff and chunks are really messing with me.

Tart and light. Not my idea of a Sangiovese. Drank one glass from the bottle and poured the rest down kitchen sink. Very disappointing! :(
