(Cheesy Romeo and Juliet quote about a rose by any other name. . .on the label).
Rustic, sweet but pleasing nose with a fruity herby mix. Smooth and jammy in the mouth, but tempered by elegant tannins and a nice bitter hint. Good but unconventional blend. Keeps the good name of Sicilian reds intact. Nice hearty but balanced wine with an unfortunate label of roses and Shakespeare related B.S. comparing Romeo and Juliet to Merlot and Sangiovese. I guess it goes to show, don't always judge a wine by it's label.
