Deep red. Dark cherry and blueberry notes with a sweet lick of vanilla. Some smoked meats with live acidity. Great chianti Classico and excellent food wine. 90 pts. — 10 years ago

Bright apple flavors, not too sweet with a light cirrus bite at the end. Perfect accompaniment to spicy Asian food but goes well with Ethiopian or Jamaican also. — 12 years ago

Hot rocks, crunchy red fruit, cinnamon. Perhaps a touch less acidity than I expect from this wine, but that's a quibble. Needs food. — 10 years ago

Really, really nice, esp at this price point. Light color, nice fruit, flowery nose, serious tannins. Very food friendly and flexible. A joy. Mellowed out on day 2, but I liked it more when it was sharper day 1.
