2013 vintage. Beautiful deep purple color. Dark fruits and a hint of earth on the nose. Bursting with berries on the palate and medium tannins with a complex finish. Better than I expected from Abuzzo. Perfect for a hearty Italian meal or by itself at sunset. 16.99 at TW. — 7 years ago

Lovely dark purple color. Cherry and sweet spice on the nose. Medium-full bodied tannins with dark fruit and oak on the palate. Wonderful balance and long finish for this price point. Very nice. — 7 years ago

A little disappointing after reading the other reviews. Nose has a hint of the Bordeaux earth but little else. Body is medium with long tanninic finish. Fruit was indiscernible to me. Ok for the price but am still searching for the affordable Bordeaux. — 7 years ago

Beautiful dark purple color with long legs. Subtle nose of dark fruits and cherry. Medium bodied tannins and hint of SLV minerals on near perfectly balanced palate. Finish is wonderful. Great bottle of wine. Cab and Petit Verdot blend. Not sure why Delectable is calling it Merlot. — 7 years ago
