Tasting - "Monte Degli Angeli Sangiovese 2013"

Name: Monte Degli Angeli Sangiovese
Variety: Sangiovese
Region: Puglia
Country: Italy
Year: 2013
Price: $7.95
Wine Critic Review (Provided by Vintage Cellar)The aromas are rich and dark, with lots of black cherry and a hint of balsamic. In the mouth the wine is round and energetic, with cherry and black raspberry fruit complemented by hints of damp earth. If you like Sangiovese-based wines like Chianti or our best-selling Colsanto from Umbria, you'll love this! The wine is ripe, fresh, and fruit-driven with a wonderful dash of earthy complexity at the end. Buy it by the case and drink with pizza, grilled poultry, and pasta.
My Review: I had trouble placing the nose on this one, although it was pleasant and smelled like some sort of sweet berry. This red wine was dry and I could tell there were tannins present, giving it a slight bite. I also didn't mind this wine and would have it with food. 
With Food: No
