Wine Pick Of The Day! Sangiovese Di Majo Norante Italy

Wine Pick Of The Day:

Sangiovese, 2006, Di Majo Norante, Italy, Dry Red Wine of Molise Terra Degli Osci, indicazione geografica tipica: Our dinner guests brought this nice bottle of Italian red wine for dinner. It was served with lasagna. We found two different opinions about the taste.

First the wine is a 2006, half of the table thought it should have been let to sit a couple more years.

Second, we found that is was a nice dry red with tons of tannins. It was pleasant. But very different from the Meritage we were drinking.

Price point: (?)

Kendall-Jackson, Meritage, California 2005, Vintner's Reserve:

A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot from several counties including Napa.

Very nice I like! Smooth, oaky, cocoa black cherry hint, label states coffee and pomegranate. I could get the coffee but the pomegranate I didn't. Our dinner fav!

Price Point: $17.95 - got on sale at Kroger for about $12.00.
