This was a pleasant surprise wine for a great price. Chelsea and I enjoyed it immensely with bread, cheese, antipasto salad and Zuppa Toscana (homemade) soup. It was smooth and balanced and very easy drinking. It would pair well with a lit of different foods. I will have to put this on the list to purchase more!
