aromas give wet wood, wet earth, rotten black cherries, blackberries... mouth adds forest floor, compost, ripe plum....tastes kind of humid and dank.

Peppery, we had it with well-seasoned spaghetti alle vongole and tuna. Light yet powerful. Did not taste mass-produced, and was good valued.

Very nice. Drank this last night and forgot to detail it here. It was smooth and easy to drink, hence the very empty bottle.

Sept 20, 2015, Volpara Italy with John, Don, Jim. Jimmy's latest favorite. Nice, medium bodied, a hint of pepper.

A nice basic wine. We taster it blind and were stumped as to what it was... But actually it was a good value.
