Tasting note:

Vintages Wine Panel: Aglianico is grape found throughout southern Italy and produces some of the most aromatic wines of the area. This Aglianico from Puglia has flavors of blackberry and raspberry, with some leather and herbal accents. The tannins are plentiful, but ripe and not drying. My note: A lovely, juicy and generous wine. It is full-bodied and has aromas of dark red fruit. Food matches: grilled veal, green salad, Italian dishes.

Yes, I'm a certified sommelier and was named the World's Best Wine Writer at the World Food Media Awards. Blah, blah, blah. What really matters is that I know which wines can increase your hedonistic happiness... a lot. Don't worry, spam doesn't pair well with wine!
