Wine Tasted:

Teanum ÒTRE Negroamaro, Cantine Teanum SRL Negroamaro 2007

100% varietal Negroamaro with initial bottle whiffs of gardenia e golden raisin fragrances. In der glass nose of anise spiked with clove buds, yes. Tastes of sprightly bright, somewhat bothersome, super razor-sharp tastes of red currant, spicy cracked cardamon, scraped flint like mineral edge like a cherry phosphate soda you had when you were ten, combined with open mouth-feel demi-sec taste of raspberry gummy bear short clean finish, one that doesn't stick to your teeth? Light-medium weight mouthfeel to the pallet. Unique and thirst satisfying as if it was an energy drink.

I would serve this wine for:

Relatives to use up 2nd bottle.

I shared this wine with:

Mark at Metro Cruise at our Italia Car Park.

The nose on this wine reminds me of:

Gardenia.

This wine would pair well with the following foods:

Habenaro Coconut Shrimp, Venusian Pomodoro Calamari, Spicy Salsiccia Italia (sausage): supposed to accompany 'fish'...HiHo, you try it.

I think this wine is priced:

I availed myself of it at half norm price point....so pretty good deal.

If I have any gripe with this wine, it's that:

Irritating harshness to profile.
