Subtle flavor contrasts with the incredibly full and syrupy body quite well. Rich in spite of its subtleties, this wine presents barely ripe strawberry, cinnamon... Perhaps a hint of maple? Scent is intoxicatingly sweet and devoid of floral notes. Light hint of oak or some other wood maybe. Delightful pair with red meat.

Smooth, yet with a tiny kick as it goes down. Tastes more expensive than it is!

Phenomenal for $6. Great Zin character - raspberry, plum, with some tea notes. Bursting with flavor. This is the best of the Epicuro line from Trader Joe's. Proving, again, that Puglia is the best value out there right now.

I’m quite shocked at the ratings of this, solid bottle of wine. Nice fruity red but not jammy. Nice structure. 6 bucks at TJs.
