Decided to try the 2006 since the 2011 was so interesting. This one has developed significant secondary flavors while maintaining the classic flavors of Sangiovese.

Feb 1st, 2016"Impressed for a $15 bottle. Nice traditional sangiovese. Good bouquet even at open. I didn't think it improved all that much with air on day 1, but did get a little more open on day 2. Detected a bit more peppery spiciness than I expected, but not at all overwhelming. Good balance on the tannins and acids. Planning to buy a few more to drink over the next year."
