Product Description
This wine is mostly Syrah with a smaller part Merlot. You get great value with an unpretentious red wine like this. It successfully delivers an easy-drinking approach, but it remains faithful to its Tuscan roots all the while. To me, those Tuscan tastes are associated with sunshine and happiness. This wine aspires to deliver precisely those things.
