My first Sangiovese from the U.S.

The 2010 blends 7% Cab, all from estate vineyard in Yountville. It opens with ripe plum, dried cranberry, and fig, mingling with and savory notes of leather, tobacco leaf, and touch of forest floor. A Napa expression of the Tuscan grape, it balances ripe fruit with earthy complexity. Acidity has turned softer but is still holding up. Resolved tannins. Subtle balsamic and dried herbs notes on the medium finish.
