This was a gift from friends, and after leaving it in the cellar I decided to pull it out to have with leftover stuffed peppers tonight. It’s a very soft and friendly wine. Nose has soft, ripe, sultry berry fruit, baking spice, and a warm sandstone minerality. Soft, ripe, and full in the mouth, it’s got welcoming fruit upfront. Very flowing and loose-boned, the finish is fruity though not particular long. This style will appeal to a broad range of people.

Nice red, heavy enough to go well with spice but not over powering

Nice simple American palatized Italian wine. Plenty of fruit and a good full bodied leathery base. Not too fussy and delicious. Excellent value, drink some if you can.
