| Notes | "Light aromas of peppery spice, violet and cranberry start off this Negroamaro. There's a softness to the feel at first, yet bright acidity quickly brightens up the palate and propels along the flavors of tart red berries. Light tannins and ripe cherry show good resolve on the finish." (Wine Enthusiast) "Round and easy-drinking, this creamy red is light- to medium-bodied, with hints of black cherry coulis, licorice and smoke." (Wine Spectator) | |||
