Wine Review: This ruby red wine is definitely old world in style. I found that it benefited with some decanting. The bouquet of this wine is intense and has a slight hint of alcohol. On the palate, this dry wine is soft and round. This would be a wonderful complement for a tomato sauce based meal. On the finish, this wine goes on and on for a long time. It gets drier in the close. Enjoy – Ken
