Predominately Prugnolo Gentile (Sangiovese Subvarietal). Well structured and medium to full bodied. Dry. Blended with Merlot.

V. much on the lighter side, but enough snappy red cherry to make it easy to match. A safe choice for a Tuesday night red b

Ugh, missing Tuscany. This wine definitely punches above its weight ($16ish?). Dried cherries and spicy herbs, perfect with pasta.

I just love Poliziano. This smells like blackberries or maybe cherries? It's just a great, well balanced, medium bodied red wine. Just the right amount of acid and dryness without being overwhelming. And it sticks to your tongue so you can continue to enjoy it for a little while.

On the lighter side of Montepulciano, fruit forward, medium oak, a bit acidic with medium tannins. Very nice wine that can pair with many dishes. Worth having in your home.

This is a good blend of Merlot and Sangiovese. Hints of berries with a smooth, dry finish. Not bad!

N: some nice old world funk. C: dark red pushing into brown. P: light tannin structure cherries and dark earth.

Full bodied red from Italy. Great with pizza. Accurately described as "salty" by Rita
