Wine Review: This dark red colored Italian red blend opens with black cherry and black plum bouquet with notes of cedar and cinnamon. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with gentle acidity. The mouthfeel is well-balanced, super smooth and velvety. The flavor profile is a blend of blackberry and stony minerality with notes of black currant, black pepper, and oak. I also detected hints of black licorice. The finish is dry and its well-managed dusty tannins build-up and stick around for quite some time. This impressive Italian red wine would pair perfectly with Roy's rib roast. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: A lively purple color, this is a wine of great complexity – a distinctive feature of the vintage. In the glass, notes of Mediterranean heathland, alfalfa and rosemary are immediately apparent, followed by fruits such as Morello cherry and soft spices such as vanilla. The evolution continues with delicate toasty hints of cocoa. The palate is beautifully balanced with excellent tannins and good length.
