Gaglioppo, Calabria, 2008

In my very subjective opinion, there is no such a thing as a good wine with a nose of a strawberry preserve (yes, the above statement extends to Beaujolais....).  This wine came highly recommend by the Stew;s Liqueurs staff.  However, I still say no.  It is too fruity with no noticeable structure to support it.  This is not a bad wine yet it is so far from my palate that I have to say no, don't buy it.  I was relieved to find out that Parker thinks very highly of it.  Yet another reason not to buy it....
