A solid wine, with a core of cherry and dark plum fruit. The nose is especially nice, with prune, leather and clove accents. Turns spicier and somewhat woodier through the palate and onto the finish. Shows good acidity and even tannins. Drink now.

Il Valore Giovane (or “young”) is a fresh and easy expression of Sangiovese with immediate aromas of strawberry jam and floral violet tones. This red wine from southern Italy is indeed very young and informal overall.
