Nice concentration and pretty aromas characterize this brawny red: red fruit, forest berries, licorice, mineral tones, toasted nut and black slate are identifying elements. There’s good ripeness and succulence to the wine followed by solid tannins.

This pretty Trebbiano offers aromas of peach, candied fruit and apricot. There’s a freshness to the aromas that translates into crisp and snappy zest in the mouth. Drink this generous wine with seafood or white meat.

Light and refreshing, with grassy notes and kiwi aromas, this well-priced Trebbiano makes an excellent choice with cocktails or fresh summer foods like Caprese salad or grilled tuna.

Kudos (a 70-30 blend of Merlot and Montepulciano) offers distinctive notes of red licorice, polished mineral and cherry liqueur that could stand up to beef or venison. Soft notes of mesquite wood and Spanish cedar fill in the background and the wine is soft, chewy and plush with a touch of sourness at the very end.

This modern expression of Montepulciano d’Abruzzo has been shaped by lavish use of oak that translates into aromas of chocolate and vanilla bean. There is definitely enough pulpy fruit and natural spice to mellow out those oak tones. The overall effect is that of an integrated and healthy wine.

This rosé opens with a bright, saturated pink color and although the nose is rather neutral, the wine does deliver a clean and full texture that could pair with most summer dishes or lightly fried calamari. There’s a touch of both sweetness and piquant spice on the close.

Neutral and unassuming on first impact, this luminous rosé eventually delivers notes of mineral, ash, stone fruit and small berry. The wine offers more in the mouth, however, where it exhibits fresh flavors of raspberry and blueberry.

This pomegranate-pink Cerasuolo from central Italy opens with spicy aromas of chopped herb, cassis and raspberry and ends with cooling acidity on the close. The mouthfeel shows balanced density and smoothness.
