Tasted 01/09/2016

This fair and lively everyday Sangiovese/Merlot (50/50) blend ws served slightly overchilled, so some surprises happened :)

Attractive cherry red, purplish rim.
First nose shows sharp smell of rotten plum on rubber stack.
Minute later substituted by ripe plums and cherries, strawberry jam, hint of underbrush. Iris, bellflower, stones...
Silky textured medium-bodied palate, well-integrated acidity, firm tannins. Wild cherry, cornel, cranberry flavors with some herbal remedies. 
Medium length finish of red berries (cherry, cornel).
Versatile in terms of pairig.
