Dark in color with a mild red berry nose. On the mid palate the wine displays some nice red berries and dried fruits to match the nose. There’s some noticeable oak present as well. On the medium length finish the wine displays some nice smooth tannins, some vibrant acidity and some nice dryness. I would give it an 88 or so. We paired it with a filet mignon and it went well. It’s a simple well made fruit forward Sangiovese. Medium body and fruity as the LCBO characterize it is spot on.
