- wondersofwine - 07-02-2008 4000 bottles Paid $19.95 on sale; usually priced at $24.95; less by the case 13% alcohol Imported by Turner Wine Imports, Morrisville, NC Kind of a burgundy color; semi-transparent and quite viscous. Fruity red berry nose. Really quite mellow on the palate with a mild tartness that holds the fruitiness in check. Probably a Sangiovese base. Label doesn't specify varieties of grape. I paired it with pizza the first night (sausage, bell pepper, olives, onion) and with stuffed peppers the next night. A quality wine that can go with everyday meals. Translation of the back label indicates note of sour dark cherries and raspberry with floral shadings. |
