Monthly wine group met up and had an Italian wine night at one of the local Italian BYOB spots. Really fantastic Italian wines were brought, as well as some random bottles that were outside the theme (but worthy of opening regardless of theme).
Stephen thought it would be fun to throw this in as a non-Italian wine. It compared somewhat similarly to the 2010 Super Tuscan we had earlier, but this was lighter and a bit one dimensional. Felt extracted, though the primary flavors of cherry, cedar, currant, and herbal spices were there.
