Strong wine to take on rich sauces, heavy pepper and other spices. Off set cream sauces or enjoy w/soft cheeses. Great fruit.

2010 - 38% Aglianico, 34% Syrah, 28% Cabernet Sauvignon. Delicious with deep dish sausage pizza. Big fruit, lots of oak spice influence, somewhat sweet but a very nicely structured blend.

Really nice. Dark fruits, some black cherry...creamy vanilla. Squirt of acid and a hint of tannin.
