Bought this on your rec Doug, I've liked a few of their Panlonico offerings too but I like Chilean and Argentinian reds.

For Italian wines Sangoviese has always been a favorite of mine

Not too sweet white Zinfandel and butter go really well on chicken. Delicious when cooked on a flat top chicken philly style
