50 50 syrah sangiovese. Blueberries, pie crust, savory herbs, lavender. Silky, tart acid with an underlying smoothness. Yum.

50/50 syrah sangio. Like all of Stolpman's wines, so vivacious and full of sweet fruit when young, but the structures there. Needs more time to come alive but still loved it

A little past its time, lots of sediment but didn’t decant. Still good but time to drink

This was quite a wine. Serious, but so pleasurable. Such a cool blend of equal parts Syrah and Sangiovese. Really exhibited a lot of classic Bordeaux notes. The Syrah and Sangio melded together and created a really harmonious composite. One of the best integrated wines I've had in some time. Well done.

This might be my favorite red I’ve ever had... it’s perfect.

Not a bad wine. I'm just not a big Sangiovese fan
