Guffo Sangiovese Merlot 2024

Abruzzo, ItalyLooking for value is never easy in BC, but this rustic red from Abruzzo meets most of the guidelines. The 55% Sangiovese, 45% Merlot blend from Cantina Tollo is called Gufffo, meaning owl in Italian, and by extrapolation, hopefully, a smart wine. The colour is medium red, as is the plummy spicy fruit and slightly gritty tannins. A spaghetti red, especially with a meat sauce, or a similarly bold pizza, would be the perfect match.Tasted: 12 August 2025Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
