June 6, 2009 - I know people seem to like this with pizza, but I'm more of a Syrah / Zinfandel with pizza kind of guy. This is, however, an incredibly good, incredibly priced pasta-with-red-sauce wine. Whatever you're having with your pasta, as long as it's got a tomato sauce on it, this wine is for you. Clean flavors, absolutely not overly tannic, absolutely not the "Super Tuscan" thing where people blend in Cab and Merlot and God-Knows-What into their Sangio so it drinks more like a big-body California fruit bomb. Nope, this is medium-body, tart, red fruit. Can you imagine why it would work with tomatoes so well? :-P Not a complicated wine, but a wine that I genuinely admire, and a wine I hope A) Vino Noceto is very proud of and B) doesn't fiddle with much in future years :)
