Winery Review: A blend of 60%
Corvina, 30% Rondinella, 10% Molinara this bright ruby red wine has hints of
black cherry on the nose. It is soft and
fruit-forward, with black-fruit flavors followed by a bright and fresh finish.
Serve it as the Italians do – young and lightly chilled. Pairs perfectly with
fleshy fish, beef, lamb, red-sauced pastas and pizza.
My Review: Brownish-red in color. Smelled of "rubbery chocolate" and more specifically dark chocolate with a high percentage of cacao. Noticeable tannin paired with a tart dryness on the palate. Flavors of dirt and dark fruit. I would pass on drinking this wine again.
I tasted this without food.
