The 1998 red Vino da Tavola (a blend of 40% Aglianico, 30% Merlot, and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon) sees no oak. The result is a fruity, robust, peppery, spicy, berry-scented and flavored effort. Although there is not much complexity, it does offer straightforward, fleshy/chunky flavors. Consume it over the next 1-2 years. This is an excellent value.
