Candoni
Elviana Red Blend
Veneto, Italy
Fruity, almost sweet. Can’t find a vintage on the bottle. Paired very well with a sweet spinach salad and goat cheese and eggplant parmigiana. Surprised that an Italian blend was not earthier, but this Wine went down easily. 😊🍷

Great Italian red blend of Malbec, Cabernet and Merlot. Surprising it does not have Sangiovese added to it, delicious none the less!

Purple in color with a wide light brick rim.
Light red fruits on the nose with currants, cherries, plums, cola, wood, light vegetables, oak, vanilla, licorice, light black pepper and spices.
Medium-bodied and smooth, with medium acidity and nice legs.
Dry and fruity on the palate with blackberries, currants, plums, cherries, oak, vanilla, leather, earth, cola, licorice, chocolates, coffee, tobacco and black pepper.
Medium finish with spices and soft round tannins.
What a great Italian blend this is, at a great price, too. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Malbec, all grown in Veneto.
Easy drinking and great for a party. As a 4 year old, it is nice and smooth and very enjoyable by itself or with food.
I paired it with a cheese plate, but it will also pair nicely with light chicken dishes.
Good right out of the bottle, and gets a little complex after an hour, but not much. With age, vegetable notes simmered down a little but they're still noticeable.
13.5% alcohol by volume.

This is a nice Italian red blend, interesting enough, no Sangiovese in the blend. Very easy drinking and would fit anyone. Nice beginner red wine, fruity and pleasant.
Ruby red in color with medium intensity and a red rim.
Fruity on the nose with cherries, blueberries, plums, sweet strawberries, light licorice, light wood and vanilla.
Medium to full bodied with high acidity and very light legs.
Dry to off dry on the palate with mainly strawberries, and some cherries, cranberries, plums, red currants, wood, leather, spices and black pepper.
Medium plus on the finish with soft, round tannins and tart cherries.
Nice, balanced and interesting yet not sophisticated.

Medium bodied, kind of dry but has a wonderful taste that lingers in your mouth. Blend of Cabernet, Merlot and Malbec. I taste the Malbec over the other two.

On the nose, red fruits, blueberries, cherries, cranberries, strawberries, spices, wood and white pepper.
Dry and Fruity on the palate with blueberries, licorice, strawberries, sweet cherries, spices and light black pepper.
Medium bodied, smooth, balanced and elegant, with nice acidity.

This was great right out of the bottle, I paired it with creamy cheeses and it could be drunk by itself. Not very sophisticated but very easy drinking.

Could not even drink this wine, very unpleasant taste. I ended up feeding it to drain.
