Tom Casagrande

My brother Dan says, “Easy like Sunday mornin’.” Or is it my brother Lionel? Either way, a terrific wine. Nose has that sultry, confident fruit that only super old vines can produce. Dark red berries, some fresh forest floor notes, a little spice and crushed river rock. On the palate it’s 💥, with rich fruit and buoyant, integrated acids. Depth and length. So good.
