Here we are in Southern Italy, and this wine won't let you forget it. The bouquet on the 2016 Il Lagarino is ripe and dark with juicy blackberry and stewed plum. This ripe blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah spreads thickly over the palate in inky dark waves, with toasted espresso and chocolate. Try to find some mutton so you can serve this with the local "cutturiddu," sheep's meat stewed in onion, tomatoes, peppers, potatoes, celery and garlic.
