Tasting - Librandi Ciro Rosso Classico

I did not pair this wine with food
Name: Librandi Ciro Rosso Classico
Variety: Rose
Region: N/A
Country: Italy
Year: N/A
Price: $14, on sale for $7.95

Professional Notes: Don’t let the pale garnet color fool you:  this is a substantial wine.  Aromas of red fruits and spice complement undertones of cranberries, wild berries, and plums.  On the palate, ripe tannins and good body make for an incredibly rich, yet easygoing red wine.  Pair this wine with sausage, spicy curry sauces, hot soppressata, and tandoori chicken.
My Review: This wine was light red in color. It had slight hints of plum on the nose. The wine was fairly tannic; the flavors changed on the finish. Overall, it was an alright wine in my opinion. I give it an 'eh.'
