Makes a perfect Italian table wine to drink now. Paired with homemade five cheese tortellini and pesto. Acidity is perfect for food. Bright cherries, saddle, and hints of espresso just begging to be paired with tomato sauce. At $12, I’m going to try and snag a bit more to go with the tomatoes and basil that are coming out of the garden.

This affordable red from Tuscany (in Italy) served us well as a case worth of house wine. A smart pairing with food, yet highly drinkable on its own, the nose of graphite, a little slate and mineral gives way to some plum and milk chocolate after a few minutes. It's light and fruit forward with some coffee on the palate, and finishes with a bit of a tart aftertaste.

Convenient cork stopper closure. The medium- to full-bodied wine offered artificial red and dark fruit aromas on the fruity nose, and red and dark fruit flavours and some spice on the palate, with sound acidity, coarse and slightly drying tannin and average length. A lunch time table wine. Drink now.

Very drinkable
Light
Fruity on the palate with plum on the finish.
Sunny day on the terrace with a fresh baguette & little cheese plate.
Happy days..
