Maybe if I eat Bratts the Packers will play better! 85% Negroamaro, 15% Malvasia Nera. Nice medium bodied wine to end the weekend.

Another solid vintage of this Puglian Red. Dark purple color. Aromas of ripe black fruit, leather and wet soil. Flavors of black berry/plum/currants with additional flavors of tobacco and coffee. Pleasant mineral note on the long and lingering finish. Medium-plus bodied and bone dry. Slightly chewy tannins but pretty well balanced. Excellent value and very consistent year after year. Thanks for sharing, Chris B!

Cost performance as we say in Japan is good. But a nice dinner wine.

Apr 8th, 2021Another consistent vintage of this underrated red. (Primarily Negroamaro blended with a bit of Malvasia Nera). Big dark plum, black currant and blackberry aromas and flavors with hints of leather, tobacco and earth. Just a touch of vanilla and toast. Good structure and balance.

Sep 21st, 2020Pretty good Italian Red from one of Italy’s under appreciated wine regions. Negroamaro Grape blended with a bit of Malvasia Nera. Big and rich blackberry fruit with hints of leather and minerals. However, the pallet is quite balanced. Deep purple color, Medium bodied, with a bit of tannin, and a touch of bitterness. Quite velvety on the long finish. Outstanding QPR!

Such an easy, sweet drinking wine. Highly recommend if you like Italians

Jan 14th, 2019Many years ago a wine seller told us this wine "loves a good tomato" and we have not gone wrong yet pairing this with basic pasta dinner. Inexpensive enough to drink on the daily if you're so inclined.
