Item No. 102334

red wine style:

winemaker's notes:

Intense, crystalline rose color. To the nose scents of berries, from wild strawberries to raspberries to notes of cherry. Sensation of freshness to the palate. The finish brings to mind freshly-picked berries.

critical acclaim:

"The 2006 Aglianico Rubrato flows from the glass with layers of dark fruit, smoke, tar and sweet toasted oak. It is a pretty, soft-textured red with excellent depth in its fruit. A greater expression of varietal character and a more balanced use of oak could very well take this wine to another level. Still, it is a highly pleasurable red from Campania. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2011."

Phil G. - Akron, OH (read all my reviews)

rating (9/29/2010):

This is exactly like bordeaux, but a littler brighter and smoother. Strawberry and raspberry on the nose, mocha, earth and tobacco on the palate with a decent finish. Tannins are really tight this wine screams for a nice juicy steak no Italian dishes...if this was a blind taste i'd swear this was bordeaux.

Ashton Smith - Aspen, CO (read all my reviews)

rating (9/14/2010):

As good as any wine we had in Sicily - full and rich and wonderfully drinkable. I've probably had a dozen bottles so far and will continue to buy it as a standard dinner wine.
