Tasting - Fossi Rosso

Name: Fossi Rosso Magnum
Variety: Sanviogese, Merlot, Primitivo, and Negroamaro
Region: Fiesole
Country: Italy
Variety: Unstated
Price: $18, sale $7.95
The wine shop's review: A blend of Sangiovese and Merlot with a touch of Primitivo and Negroamaro. It will remind those who have traveled to Italy of one of the local house wines they consumed while there. Simple, juicy, and perfect for drinking with or without food, it's packed with bright cherry, strawberry, and cranberry fruit aromas and flavors.

My review: This wine smelled like berries. It was a little acidic, but was smooth, and had a slightly earthy taste.
