This little known wine comes from a small producer whose vines are just across a creek from Banfi's vineyards. One can assume that the soil is the same as is the climate. But the Begnardi is huge and Benardi is a small producer without all the capabilities of its neighbor. Their Pigna Rossa Riserva is rustic, good but not great and inexpensive. A nice wine for a picnic or a backyard BBQ.
