WINEMAKER NOTES:
Bright, intense ruby in color with a nose of wild berries and violets, elegant and ample. Elegant and balanced acid. The long finish has an aftertaste of sweet licorice and coffee.
TASTING NOTES:
A solid, focused and compact red. Red berries, warm herbs, earth, mushrooms and baking spices dominate on the nose, following through to a full body with fine, slightly chewy tannins. Concentrated and dense, with a solid frame of tannins for the fruit and spices on the long, funneled finish. From organically grown grapes. Try after 2026.

This red is expressive, with ripe cherry, raspberry, floral and wild herb flavors married to a supple texture. Well-structured and balanced, leaving a long, fruit-, iron- and spice-tinged aftertaste, with fine grip on the finish. Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best from 2026 through 2040.
