Sonoma Valley, Sonoma County, California, USA
So this is nice and it reminds me of Napa or Sonoma cab franc compared to chinon. This is definitely not campania aglianico but it is a nice interpretation with California flare. Nose is great, but palate is all over the place. Tobacco, prunes, chocolate, berry jam, a touch of herbs and mild tannins.

Everyone liked this one better than the Sangiovese but I didn't. It was a little too earthy for me
