Uncle Joseph from the famous Pellegrino Cellar in Marsala is produced from Nero d’Avola grapes grown in clayey soil near Marsala in western Sicily.
This beautiful fortified ruby red Marsala wine is extremely fruity, with notes of black cherries, pomegranates and plums. It is sweet, with evident hints of red berries, black cherries, Marasca cherries and pomegranates.
Quality is consistent. Deeper bouquet and flavor than most Cali Zins. The Earth tones come thru beautifully about two years from Vintage. Wonderful
Red to contemplate on its own or with good food.
chianti at a good price- good value for everyday drinking
Not quite in same class as recent chianti from Wine Direct released earlier this year-but also half the price. Excellent value for a red wine: you don't have to worry about finding a superior food to match at this excellent price.
Hard pushed to find a NZ red at this price/quality ratio!
