While I was doing my tasting Saturday another distributor was tasting out Salvatore Principe Rosso Dolce ($8) from Italy and 100% Lambrusco. Since this was a new in the store, and customers do ask about sweet red wines, I had to taste it. (Okay sure, just another excuse to taste wine.) The flavor was semi-sweet (not sweet like a Moscato) and cranberry or slightly tart cherry. This was frizzante. If you're interested in a sweet red wine then I suggest this. For $8 its worth a try. From what I could see it seemed to be selling well.Winemaker's Notes: Salvatore Principe Dolce Rosso is a soft red wine that tickles the tongue with flavors of black cherry and plum, finishing with a touch of sweetness. Serve slightly chilled. Pairs well with on its own, mild cheeses, pasta dishes or cold cuts.
