Umberto Cesari Liano 2017 Review

This wine may need another year to round off its edges. The tannins are still a bit austere but the fruit is coming along nicely. It’s dark and smells like black pepper and blackberries right off the vine. Whether you sip it now or let it age a bit, this is a good steak wine.
