Fruité et Généreux. Vin de couleur rubis plutôt intense. Nez qui dégage des arômes de petits fruits rouges, d'épices, de réglisse et de tabac. Laissez-vous charmer par ce rouge sec possédant une agréable fraîcheur et doté de tanins étoffés. Il a une texture ample et une finale assez persistante.
As always, a simple southern Italian red. Straightforward, no BS wine with ripe jammy fruit in a typically rustic style. Something seems to have changed compared to prior years -this vintage, the wine came off as being a bit sweet. A quick look on the LCBO site reveals that this wine a 12g/L residual sugar. Was it this sweet in prior vintages? Serve with a decent chill to tone down that sweetness. Not really my style. Getting a bit too commercial. Tasted Nov 2014.
