Drank 9\29\22

Looking for a cheap red. I've had this in the past so I thought I'd give the 2019 a try. Simple nose of red cherry. Ripe flavors of red fruit and a touch of earth. Perhaps it is the vintage but there seems to be a move toward a riper, international style, which is not my cup of tea. This drinks hot despite the 13% alcohol and short finish.

3/21/6/2/2 +50 = 84 pts.

Would prefer a simple red from any Tuscan Osteria.
