A rush of ripe red berry fruits waft from the glass, as licorice, sweet spice, and rosy florals join the mix. Silky textures envelope the senses, finishing with saline minerals and youthful tannin. Wow this Emilia-Romagna Sangiovese is an unreal value. $17.00 (Eric Guido, Vinous, May 2020)

It's a great, refreshing Sangiovese. If you like chianti, you'll love this. It's packed with flavor, but it's light and easy drinking and fruity with enough spice and herbs to balance it. I feel like I could take wine from the porch to the dining table to the couch.
Color: A dark clear Ruby color that goes kinda purple in color
Aroma: It's a strong fruity forward aroma that I easily smelled through my N95 mask (probably a knock off). It's a delicious and enticing aroma. I get dark fruits like sour cherry, some plum, and subtle nutty notes. It has a fruit forward aroma with some juiciness. It's a very inviting aroma.
Taste: Delicious. Reminds me od chianti which makes sense since many chiantis are Sangiovese. It's light and savory with some spice and herbs like parsley. It's finishes smooth with a slightly lingering finish that dusts the tongue and coats the mouth. There's plum flavours, some cherry, some spiciness, some herbaceous parsley Ness. It has good acid and low tannins.

Great young wine, fruit forward with well rounded tanins. Probably will be even better after a few years.
