Mission Codename Dark Magic

One look into this black, inky juice makes it clear that Zuccardi’s Tito isn’t a wine to take lightly.

This wine is a sultry blend of old vine Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, and the rare Ancellotta grape. Tito’s unique composition is incredibly powerful - and so very delicious! Black and blue fruits galore with camp smoke and incense. What a treat.

Big wine lovers alert!
