About the Wine: I have written before about super Tuscans, red blends by Italian makers who refuse to accept the traditions and standards of Italian wine making. This is a super Tuscan by Da Vinci, an established Chianti brand that is distributed by Gallo which means the maker is a very mainstream rebel.
About THIS Wine: The center is dark red with a pink rim. Earth and herbs are prominent on the nose. Jammy red fruit is strong and fairly sharp on the palate. Red fruit and spice make up a pleasant finish.
Drinking This Wine: This wine is bold but not overly dry and as such could work as a sipping wine. It would also go well with meaty lasagna.
Overall Impression: The wine is good and the price is reasonable. This one is good for the price.
