7.5

Nose: a bit sour, dull. Palate: smooth-ish, simple, overall flat. Low tannins. Very low acid. A bit wet-cardboardy overall, but not really in a bad way (and not corked). But not to my taste. Not sweet enough, and not interesting enough in taste. Paid $15 — 9 years ago

Calatroni

Alright. Sweet, maybe a little too much. Low/no acid; low fruit. A bit buttery. A hint smoky? Nose lightly hinting at Saran Wrap, but not in a bad way. — 9 years ago
