Cherry cola, roasted plum, white pepper, eucalyptus, pine needles, cedar, graphite, iron, olives, bell pepper. Perfect acid/rough velvet tannin balance, full bodied, lush juicy texture, long complex herbal/smoky finish. A balance between rustic and elegant, drinking beautifully now, though its cellaring potential is worth exploring.

This wine got better over the course of dinner. A little bit barnyard. Good enough for Prof Roy

Hazy, deep ruby heading to garnet. Pronounced aromas of barnyard, orange rind. Med body, good acidity - red fruit and agressuve tannins on the palate. Deep and intense.

I've posted this one before. Friends - this is fantastic and reasonably priced. Very unique wine. But be clear, you'll either love it or hate it. Dry, barn-yardy, little funky. Big fan.

2010. Classic Sangiovese flavor profile, a bit of iron and dust. More rustic, with nice grip. Great value too. $30 from Uva Wines, Brooklyn.
