Caruso & Minini is based in Marsala, the town on Sicily's west coast known for the eponymous fortified wine. But the winery specializes in dry table wines, among them this red based on perricone, a local variety whose appearance sometimes causes it to be mistaken for barbera or sangiovese. This bottling tastes like a cross between high-acid barbera and jammy shiraz, with notes of cherry and plum. Technically dry, it registers as vaguely sweet. Try it with grilled pork or lamb.
