Tobacco, spice, black pepper corn, clove and cured meats create a powerful and inviting wine that would pair well with the heartiest of meat dishes.

I Giusti e Zanza 2003 Dulcamara Red (Toscana)

Chocolate fudge, vanilla, black cherry, cassis and blueberry essence waft from the surface of this deeply extracted, corpulent ruby-colored wine. Modern and beautifully-executed, you’ll also pick up well-integrated wood tones and refreshing herbal notes. A Merlot component is blended in for softness and smoothness.
