Long finish, deep flavor. Would pair well with steak or a red sauce.

Perfect accompaniment to a lovely Pappardelle Calabrese just the right amount of dark fruits with a touch of oak.

Smooth, sweeter than Choanti, full-bodied, nice alcholol level 13%. Especially delicious with good pizza and spicey foods!

Nice fruit, but not in a " in your face" kind of way...light to medium bodied...supremely drinkable. Being in the Bahamas helps too!

A little smokey but goes nicely with my homemade pork Katsu curry. Memories from when I lived in Japan. One of my favorite dishes.
