Here is a lively, drink-me-now with a meal, super Tuscan-styled wine — and you won’t find the words “super Tuscan” next to a ten dollar price tag anywhere else. Bright cherry, blackberry and spice with touches of dried herbs and oak toast are nicely integrated, and easy tannins don’t keep the finish from hanging in there for a while. Pair this with just about anything. It might just become your house red. Note: It’s a tad reductive, so give it a good airing before serving.
