Excellent fruit, elegant with very long finish. Rich fruit hides high alcohol (16.2) well.

Obvious fruit with balanced acidity. The neutral oak ageing separates Mazzocco from the others. Excellent high altitude vineyard fruit for Sonoma. Would drink again.

Another lovely expression from Mazzocco. Bright raspberries and delicate prunes. Not as heavy as the ABV level would suggest. Hints of leather, strawberries and jammy sweetness. Too drinkable 😁
