Lots of oak. Heavy on the nose, fairly stinky. Pallet is tart cherry, but nothing exciting. Need food, very typical.

Just amazing! I love dry wines and this one is perfect. Fresh and a very intense bouquet. Probably one of my all time favorite reds I've had so far.

A nice little everyday siciliano. Dry with a strawberry start and crisp/clean finish. Good pizza and racklett wine

Pungent with a strong nose! Pairs well with Argentinean empanadas!

Purchased at Apollo NE. Easy drinking Italian. Tannins are suppressed. No bite.

Very smooth. Similar taste in all stages from sip to finish. Great table wine!

It's a good wine. Not enough body or rounded for me. A bitter fruit taste - cherries and strawberries. Bitter but not acidic. Would be paired great with a nice Italian cheese. If could find for under $10, I would buy again, but you're not impressing anyone with this find.
