The easiest way to describe this wine is baby amarone. It is a dark wine but more like a Pinot than merlo or cab. Old world fruit with an earthy finish. Great wine for under $20

A solid player for the weeknight, budget sipper, with great vintage pedigree to boot!
Appassimento style, dry cherry, leather, coffee, yum. Wow at $18

2 people found it helpfulOct 30th, 2018A decidedly lower key night, after some extensive tasting yesterday.
Nose has cherry syrup, dried cherry, cut red pepper and moist Costa Rican coffee grounds.
Palate has dried cherry, ripe sweet cherry, plum skin, moist prune and old, forgotten loose tobacco.
This bottle is still young, guessing it'll still be drinking great at its 10th birthday, but likely never last that long in this household.
