Medium dark red, purple. Slight cherry on the nose with muted raspberry and modest earth tones. Very hint of sweetness mid palate but finishes smooth with a good blend of fruit and leather. Would definitely have again.

After 7 years the leather and earthiness really comes out it seems. It also reminds me of a bonfire. I bet this would go great with pizza.

Pleasant super Tuscan, that is very easy to sip or pair with ITALIAN foods. Medium bodied with a deep ruby color. After 6 years it was very smooth. Drank 2016 vintage in October 2022.

Fresh and light bodied Sangiovese. Bright ruby color. Red fruit, violets, pepper spice and leather on the nose. Pallet features plums, Forrest Floor and a hint of cherry. Touch of coffee and vanilla on the finish. Soft tannins. Good acidity.
