  Surprised me - 11/20/2009
I would buy this wine again
Had this by the glass at an unremarkable, cheap Italian restaurant. It was the only wine on the list that I felt would even appeal to me, but had never had it before. It turned out to be the best part of the meal. Very nicely balanced and paired superbly with the food. Definitely some varietal character of the Cabernet evident, but does not overpower the bright fruit from the Sangiovese. Nice and soft without mass-market sweetness. I was with enjoyable company so I thought maybe it was just one of those times when the wine tastes better because of it, but I was pleasantly surprised to see the scores on this wine over time are consistent and agree with what I experienced. For the price, this will be an excellent 'house' wine for weeknight dinners at home.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.
Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
Green wine

About Professional Ratings

These wine ratings are based on a 100-point quality scale, and are selected by each publication's unique criteria. Some wine ratings are expressed as ranges. When this occurs we will list the highest score in the range and note the full range within the tasting note.

While ratings may influence your decision, the ultimate judgment is your palate.
