Region: Abruzzo, Italy
Grapes: 100% Montepulciano
Tasting Notes
Made from select vineyards planted with a clone of Montepulciano, this wine is complex in the best way. Ruby red with violet reflections and notes of oregano and boysenberry on the nose. The palate is full and rich yet held up by bright acidity, like a dark cherry that still has a hint of sour.
Pairing Recommendation
Baked mac n cheese, black bean burgers, beef tacos

Fredignac Cuvee La Favorite
Details
Producer: Chateau Fredignac
Region: Bordeaux, France
Grapes: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc
Tasting Notes
A fruity, juicy wine with swathes of black currant and berry flavors. The wines depth and complexity from the ancient vines shows itself in the length of the finish and the smoky, spicy characteristics. The youthful touch shows itself in that the fruits are fresh and pronounced, and not stewed or overripe like some Bordeauxs. This is the wine to drink to convince a friend that Bordeaux can be approachable, or maybe the bottle to finally sway you!
Pairing Recommendations
Steak frites, buffalo burgers, dark meat turkey, green bean casserole

A more complex wine from La Mancha with persistent notes of strawberry jam and wild flower. The palate adds a touch of balsamic and licorice to the red fruits and blends some dark cherry into that strawberry jam note.
