"A bright and juicy but structured red that shows both vivid fruit and a firm tannic backbone. Medium-bodied, polished and even, with notes of red berries, walnuts and spices and a mineral aftertaste. Drink or hold."

"This is broad and ripe, delivering plum, cherry, leather, iron and eucalyptus flavors. Fresh and persistent, with a wall of burly tannins shoring up the finish. Sangiovese, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best from 2026 through 2040. 800 cases made, 400 cases imported."
