The overall effect of that ripeness is that it downplays the wine's inner complexity. But this entry-level red from Tenuta San Guido was never aiming for huge complexity to begin with. Dark cherry and cherry is followed by wild strawberry and tangy rose hip. This wine happily delivers on its promises of freshness and accessibility.\" (February, 2018)\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv _mce_style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"left\" style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eWine Enthusiast (Kerin O'Keefe) 91\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv _mce_style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"left\" style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13.3333px;\"\u003e\"Made with 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Sangiovese, this offers enticing aromas of black-skinned berry, iris and cedar.
