Here, vineyards and olive groves grow        side by side. As in Tuscany, sangiovese plays a major role in red wines.        Merlot, sangiovese and cabernet sauvignon combine in this wine to        provide a riotous blend of cherries and raspberries with wisps of smoke        and spice. In the mouth, the wine is smooth and balanced with a long,        clean finish. Serve with grilled Italian sausage or roast chicken.        Available at Central Market, Farpointe Cellar, Jimmy's Food Store,        Pogo's and Wine Market &amp; More.     </p>     <p>       Rebecca Murphy     </p>     <p>       <!-- Image1 start  //<div class="biimage"  style="width:175px;padding:3px 0px 3px 3px;float:right;" > <img src="/bi/images/clikEnlarge.gif" width="80" height="16" border="0" title="Click image for a larger version" style="border: 0px; align: left;" />  <img src="/sharedcontent/dws/img/v3/01-31-2007.NF_31wow.1.G8L22R3SK.1.jpg" width="175"   height="177" style="cursor:pointer;" onClick="return clickedImage(this);" onMouseOver=" this.style.cursor='hand'" alt="" title="" /><div class="bithumbcaption"><div class="bithumbcredit"></div></div></div><p> // Image1 end -->     </p>   </span>
