Wine Review: This wine opens with a pronounced blackberry aroma. On the palate, this wine continues with very pronounced berry fruit flavors that are round initially. The wine is medium bodied and quite acidic. As the wine is swallowed it starts out acidic and then evolves into an extended and very dry finish. The wine matched very well with my Italian dinner. Enjoy - Ken
