Winery Review: A blend of Sangiovese and Merlot with a touch of Primitivo and Negroamaro. It will remind those who have traveled to Italy of one of the local house wines they consumed while there.  Simple, juicy, and perfect for drinking with or without food, it’s packed with bright cherry, strawberry and cranberry fruit aromas and flavors.

Personal Review: This class had an earthy, raisiny smell to it. Like a dried sunny earthy smell. It tasted a bit spicy with a black cherry and cranberry flavor to it. It had a bit of spice or a sharp kick at the end.
