Very good by the glass, especially for $11 or so. Blackberry and spice with a silky texture.

Garnet color with promising, rustic, smoky cassis, blackberry, black cherry, aromas. On the palate, it's medium-bodied, and persistent with wonderful acidity and cassis, blackberry, plum, and a hints of cacao and vanillin flavors. Medium finish. 100 Aglianico from the little known Molise DOC in Italy. Very good value at $11.99

Pairs well with vodka sauce. Good right out of the bottle. Dry and easy drinking.
