Wine Review: This very light red colored Italian red wine for $10 is a good everyday option. It opens with red cherry bouquet with a hint of oak. On the palate, this wine is light to medium bodied, balanced, and easy to drink. The flavor profile is a very light cherry with hints of oak in the background. The finish is dry and its mild tannins are nicely prolonged. This Italian red blend is food friendly and would be a good choice for spaghetti and meatballs or sausage pizza. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: Color: Bright ruby red. Bouquet: Hints of black cherry. Taste: Soft, fruit-forward, with black-fruit and a bright and fresh finish. Meant to be enjoyed young. Ideal with fleshy fish, beef, lamb, red-sauced pastas and pizza.
