Sixty-year-old vines and great value from Southern Italy--Zin lovers can now find a home in the old world.

Deep garnet color; bouquet of cherries, kirsch and cedar. Medium-bodied; soft; unctuous with great fruit (strawberries and black cherries) and caramelized flavors; sweet tannins. Good finish on fruit. Cellerable for 2-4 years. Ideal for aperitif or with food such as pasta, pizzas, veal and light cheeses.

Made from very old vines, an ok wine, just a bit too earthy and muted for me.
