2019 Estate Bella Rosso
Tasting notes
A blend of four equal parts of estate red wine grapes. The Sangiovese (san-jow-vei-zuh) adds the earthy nose, Montepulciano adds the fruit, Aglianico (ahl-YAH-nee-ko) provides the tannins, & Primitivo (pree-meTEE-vo) gives it that peppery finish; when combined together it offers a smooth and versatile food-friendly wine.
