Beautiful ruby color. Nose of cherries, sweet spices (cinnamon), earth, it’s fresah and inviting. What a good idea to fall for the wine and listen to its call! Perfect acidity level, right amount of fruit flavors, of chewyness with just a touch of spice. As many Italian wine, this one shines when paired with food. And beware, this is the kind of bottle you go through quite rapidly… Very good (89)
