8.5

Interesting harmonious nose of both ripe and dried fruits, baking spices, dark chocolate, and bee's wax; on the palate a nice structure of dusty tannins and medium-high acids and alcohol mix well with mostly red fruits and soft red jelly beans. Considering the price, this wine is a bargain.

Typical but well made Italian red. Light and pleasant flavours. Good on its own but also with food. Probably bad value for money at the non discounted price.

Red fruit, smoke and herbs. A bit woody on the palate, decent tannins and nice acidity. Finish is a bit short.
