(December 22, 2014) ... Later that same day (I had my "Drinking with Dave" Adventure) I tried my second bottle of Virgin Wine Club wine, a Rufina 2012 Collezione do Paolo Sangiovese. I found this wine to be quite pleasant with lovely blackberry, cassis, cocoa, and raspberry on the nose. The palate was fresh and lively with acidity, along with notes of black cherry, cassis, and a hint of oak; but the thing that really got me was just how fresh and fruity this wine was with a finish that seemed to be full of cocoa and subtle oak. Bravo once again to the Virgin Wine Club for picking another enjoyable bottle.
