Meh. Strawberry bomb. I grabbed this at the grocery store hoping it would be good with ribeyes tonight. Not going to happen. It's quaffable, but not what I'm looking for. I may open a crazy 52 year old barolo instead. Stay tuned!

The Sangiovese was out so we landed on this one. No regrets. Smells a bit astringent but with lots of vanilla and strawberry. Very fruity, medium bodied. A solid wine, especially for $18 at a restaurant.

Medium ruby in color; strawberries, black peppercorns, and dill on the nose; medium acidity; medium plus tannins; tastes like dried blueberries, blackberry jam, and wet slate with a long finish. It tastes like there is some residual sugar. I like it.
