Wine Review: If you are looking for an enjoyable everyday Italian red wine here is a good value option. This bright ruby red wine with a muted light blackberry and oak like bouquet. On the palate, this wine is round, quite juicy, has no hard edges and goes down real easy. This quaffer displays very tasty black cherry flavors with slight hints of oak. The finish is dry and shows slight tannins. This wine would pair very nicely with lasagna, spaghetti with meatballs and even pizza. Enjoy – KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: Deep red with bright reflections. Attractive bouquet with a promise of a refreshing nose and a good structure on the palate, too. Fresh and velvety smooth mouthfeel. Bitter cherry and plum flavours. Surprisingly long on the finish.
