It’s a youthful ruby color and smells youthful, too, offering a sense of washed linen and tart cherry fruit. The palate is tight, cherry-steeped but drying and finishes with a blaze of red acidity. In other words, this wine is just as you expect from a young Sangiovese not treated to new oak: simple refreshment good with a range of Mediterranean fare. Give it some air.
