This "Super Tuscan" red blend is made of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah, but the Sangiovese and Merlot grapes are the standouts. At first pour, this wine is earthy (the Sangiovese), but after 15 minutes exposure to air, it becomes smoky (Merlot). This wine is a good value and pairs well with chicken and starches, but clashes horribly with Cranberry. A good, inexpensive Italian red blend.
Paid $12.99 at Petzinger's
