Rincon Famoso, a Sangiovese based red to enjoy for no money at all

Rincon Famoso, Sangiovese based blend 2004, By Bodega Lopez, Mendoza,
USD 5-7



Quite simple but stright blend Chianti styled with Sangiovese dominant and a touch of malbec and merlot form Maipu Dpt, Mendoza . Great terroir and a wine made following Chianti tradition. Brown red brilliant and lucent. Soft fruits mostly cherries sour and ripe with figs and delicate hint of cinamon or like dried tree crust. Good red to enjoy the style and a very good value.I mean, not very complex but quite good for the price you pay. I´d say a 83 point blend to enjoy a number of years from now.
