Wine Review
Archive - Italy, Apulia - Red
($10).
This is a delicious lip-smacking wine
from southeast Italy -- the heel of the
boot, if you will. Focused cherry and
blackberry fruit are round and ripe, on
a medium-bodied frame, with a smooth mouthfeel
and finish. A heck of a deal. Ready to
drink now. (Weekend Wine, 07/02)
($8).
Ripe black cherry and prune fruit, with
lush spices and a lingering finish.
Good value. Ready to drink now. (Weekend
Wine, 12/03)
($7).
We’ve been drinking this wine for
a few years now and like it every year!
Robust and fruity, featuring red cherry
and raspberry fruit, with a subtle, appealing
spicy note, this wine is smooth and easy
to drink. Ready to drink now. (ETFOFW,

($8). Dried cherry and raisin fruit, with
appealing dashes of earth and mineral.
Lots of flavor, especially at this price!
Ready to drink now. (Weekend Wine, 12/03)
($11). A personal favorite, this wine
is beautifully balanced. Spicy, but not
too tannic, fruity but not bubbly. Exactly
what a wine from this DOC should be. (Robyn’s
Picks, 10/99)
($N/A).
On the one hand, light and fruity. On
the other hand, just enough tannins and
body to make it work. This is a sunny,
enjoyable wine – perfect with a picnic.
Widely available and ready to drink. (Robyn’s
Picks, 10/99)
