This Italian wine from Umbria, the 2008 Villa Fidelia Sportoletti is one of my favorite Italian wines and this one did not let me down. Very black in color with plum and sweet cherry on the nose, the palate follows exactly. A few years since I last tried this and the tannins have mellowed a bit but true maturity is still several years away. I will let my remaining bottles rest for a few years.
abv of 15% and a Bordeaux blend I think.
