"Delicious Pinot Noir from a highly unlikely area. Umbria is more known for Orvieto and Sagrantino, but this exceptional value is a true hidden gem. Ripe and round, with good texture and fresh acidity, this is a true deal at only $15 a bottle!"

"Great little wine from Umbria. This jazzy little guy needs 45 minutes to open and then POW! Loaded with classic red fruit this wine has a funny little finish that makes you want to drink more and more...a great value."
