Relatively deep color. Rich nose of dark and red berries, along with dried cherry and dry plowed gravelly earth. Mouthfilling and soft, it’s straightforward and quite satisfying. Some soft tannin prevents it from feeling too fat. Acids are soft.

Listening to the Grateful Dead (Barton Hall May 1977). RIP Bob Weir. 😢

Blend of Sangiovese Grosso (95%-Special Clone) and Cabernet Sauvignon (5%). Dark ruby color that fades a bit on the rim. Aromas of ripe red berry fruit, mint, rose petals and wet soil. Flavors of red plum, cherry, raspberry, mushroom and basil. Touch of smoke on the long and lingering finish. Medium-plus acidity, velvety tannins and firm structure. Well balanced. Crowd pleaser.
