A summer red. It should be served a little chilled and goes well with appetizers, cheeses, cured meats and pates and won’t overpower the occasional fish dish. A bright red color with hints of rose petals and strawberries. This wine is light and wildly aromatic.

Served chilled (it was a little too cold, but warmed up at the table). The nose was muted due to the temperature, but there was a cherry pie flavor, complete with vanilla pie crust. Light, and with no tannins.

Very well received by everyone who tasted it. Smells like frosted cherry pie, but there's a lot of fresh acidity giving it a tart finish.

A dry red made from Frappato, a very Sicilian grape variety. Pretty from the start, this scrumptious wine is ruby red in color, with firm raspberry fruit and lively acidity. It is the perfect easy-drinking wine to enjoy every day with Italian red sauce dishes.
