This is one of the best values in a very long time. Savory, saline, dried cherry. Intense flavors, tart balance.

Sangio with a bit of Caniolo and Syrah. Feels txt book Chianti- floral, red fruits, fennel, orange rind and Campari with little noticeable oak. Savoury and medium bodied, go forth with some food in toe for maximum enjoyment
