Aromas of sour red cherry and mixed wild berry are joined by light baking spices. The wine is nicely tart on the attack, before its dried black fruit takes over. Good acid, silky tannin, and a savory peppery component add interest. Enjoy with all your Italian and Mediterranean favorites: slow-cooked Sunday sauce, eggplant puttanesca, classic lasagne, meatball soup, Italian pot roast or moussaka.
