Good Stuff, a great alternative to a Chianti. A great history to the area, I like that vintners are going back to their roots and making some great wines. Cherry, plumbs, leather, a little spice, everything reallll Nice

Dinner at Visconti on Susie's birthday. This was the second bottle. We took it home and had it with dinner.

Blue berry and spice.

Very good wine had this with an Italian steak cooked over an open fire. Wine was full bodied and stood up to the flavor of the steak well.

Bright ruby red color with very nice aromas of red fruits, lavender, and cigar. Medium-to-full-bodied with very good taste of red cherry, blackberry, a touch of vanilla, and tobacco on the palate. Round & mouth-filling of silky tannins with good balanced of acidity and finish nicely with long savory aftertaste. Like it very much.
