Review:

Alluring aromas of strawberries, raspberries, and cherries, with just a hint of butterscotch can be found on the nose. The fruit-driven palate highlights flavors of cherry and strawberry, accented by butterscotch and barrel spices. A much softer more elegant wine than its Italian counterparts, try a bottle if you’re not a fan of the earthy character of many old world wines and prefer a riper express of fruit.
